The pictures above are of clinic that we had to check for cataracts to see if they could get the help they need from the vision doctor we are sending here from the US

This picture is where sister miles and the other senior missionary women go shopping on Saturday




 These five photos are of some community water stations that we dedicated this week in five different communities we put these water stations andor we cannot get oh well and a truck the drinking water in and fill the tanks up the people have to learn to pay for the water that they drink so they will be able to refill the tank they are very appreciative of this drinking water many of them have to go for a half a mile to get water and packet back on their heads of course

Here we were turning over supplies to a small school with about 55 students the lady you see sister miles and I with his 95 years old and still running the school she needed us to help her with school desks and supplies she is a very intelligent woman and has a lot of stories to tell you about the war that was here

this is the school that we gave  120 chairs and desks for the children out here they were very excited about receiving them we have done about six of the schools we are very careful with the ones that we select we make sure that they will take care of the things that the church is given them


this is our contractor that helps build the Wells and latrines which is attending the opening of a new latrine that we gave this school which is for orphans




this is a school that we gave hundred and 30 chairs to and school supplies we've done this with about six schools we have many more the request  but we have to be very careful the ones that we select that look like they are very sincere and will take good care of the things that the church gives themthis is a very rewarding project


in these two top pictures this community called me because they were having severe flooding we went in and assessed the place and put in for disaster relief funding to help them build up their dikes to slow down the flooding the water was quite deep in some of these places. The bottom picture is one of the water towers that we are building where they have no drinking water we come in and put these towers and put 1000 gallon water tank where I'm standing and a filling station for them to get their drinking water they have to pay a small amount for there water so that they can refill the tank people are very excited about getting these we are doing about 10 of them in the communities
