Community water towers

Just found a

 These pictures above are of two community water towers that we dedicated  this last Saturday the people  have been walking a couple of miles to get there. Water and now they have it in their community a just have to pay a small amount for every bucket that they receive so they can refill the tank when it gets low. These people are very thankful for the blessings that they have received. Sometimes it is very hard for the communities to keep them up so I have a community development team  that keeps going back  and helping them
