Dear Friends,
I forgot one well of the 13 in last batch. It was Domingo’s well, the leader of the group. Here it is with Domingo pumping (before he made his pump jack).
Also while I am at it the first two wells finished from the newest club that just started working. In this club we are using our motorized rig as it is in a rocky area. We may start lending the motorized rig to clubs anyway as that way clubs can form with only five people per club instead of ten and get finished quicker. These club has gotten along fine with the motorized rig after helping them with the first couple of wells. We have three of these here so using the little motorized rig may help really multiply clubs Thanks again for praying for WFA. Pray we can figure out how to make this happen in many other places around the world too.
Sincerely,
Terry
This is Domingo’s well the 13th well of the water club that finished yesterday.
One of the two wells just finished by the new San Ramon Water club. Very first pumping and we lost our light before we could pump it clean. It will clean up quickly. Water level came up to 3 meters from the surface.
Yep this is where the family was getting it’s bathing and wash water. They said they brought water from the river to drink.
This is Elias, Teofilo’s son. Teo is our master well driller/instructor and his son is following in his footsteps and now works with us. A great young man and what a blessing! Teo and I are too old to work this hard. Elias and Sergio are full of energy.
This was the drinking water our guys Sergio and Elias were provided by the group. They called us saying “BRING DRINKING WATER!”
Brand new well and first pumping for family. They won’t have to go to the river any more. After pumping a minute it started to clear. This well was 20 meters deep and up in the hilly area round San Ramon. Lots of gravel and had to use lots of bentonite. Completely different drilling than on the flats where we usually work. People have already heard about the wells and another club is forming up.
