A sneak peek at El Salvador week

El Salvador was amazing! God moved. Prayers were answered. And lives were changed. I can't wait to share lessons learned and sights seen. Until then, here are a few snippets of my time serving with Agua Viva Internacional in El Salvador:


Maria shows us what the typical water is like in the hand-dug wells around Campenaro Numero Dos.

Enrique, the Salvadoran master driller with Agua Viva Internacional, checks the recharge rate on the well. We hit water by noon on the first day!

We completed the well on Thursday. Here I am screwing pipes together with a gargantuan wrench.

Jorge Ceren Ramos, the village leader, takes the first drink from the new well. Now the village children won't suffer so much with diarrhea and the women will have more time to work and raise kids without having to walk 2 kilometers to the nearest LWI well.
