Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

Early in the morning (3 am mostly) while most people would still be asleep, people trek to locations in swampy areas, where they had dug out the soil while wating for water to collect. Women and children danced at the sight of the drill rig in their community. With massive support, women, children and the youth stood by the team as we worked to make water more available for them. We are grateful to God that our prayers were answered.
