Update

I do not know how many people still look at this blog because of the amount of time it has taken me to put up new post. Anyway, here is a quick update of what has been happening. Things have been going pretty slow down here because nobody is in a hurry to get anythng done. I have been in the process of getting another steel mold built so I could be able to do twice as many. The guy who has been welding it told me it would take 3 days for him to do but it ended up taking about 10. This was a problem becasue for 8 of those days he had to have the existing mold to measure off of cause he could not read blue prints. I have both now and concrete in them drying as we speak. The ones that I have made previously have had little flaws that I have been trying to correct so I am praying that this two will be perfect. There is a village where we have chicken houses, garden projects, and nutritional centers, and this is where I plan to put the first filters. There are around 60 families and we are going to try to make enough filters so that there will be pure water for every 5 families as well as the nutritional center, church, and school. The name of this village is Mangito, so please be praying that this filters will serve them well, any that they will accept and understand the importance of clean, pure water to drink and also for their souls. Well that is all for now. I will try to do a better job of updating. Thanks for being patient and ROLL TIDE!!!!
