A message from the community

Dear Madam/Sir

Greeting come to you the entire family of Life Water liberia, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This Town is located down slope along the road. It is closer to a very big swamp. There was no hand dug well around but swamps. This was very bad for us and some of our children passed.

Mean while, upon the receipt of this letter we the entire family of the village ministries extends you thanks and a words of appreciation to you all for giving village ministries inc. one Afridev hand pump in Bong-Mines, Zawea Komu Clan, Fuamah District Lower Bong County, Republic of Liberia.

Thanks Rev. Peter G. W. Dabieh, Adminstrative Manager
