Work Tour Continued

As the Team is starting their last day at Royal International School, I am getting more images of the work that has been completed these last two weeks.  Come along and see what God has done.

Here are a couple of videos of the outside of the auditorium - video 1 and video 2

Head Teacher, Frank, has 10 years of experience.

Putting in New Floors

New Retaining Wall and Walkway
It has rained for the last four days- THIS IS A MIRACLE, which means that the tanks are half full. We are in dry season until April. Someone asked Dan how to improve the water situation.  Here is Dan's reply:

"Two years ago, Dennis Blake raised $25,000 for water.  Sadly, all five wells drilled to 300 feet came up empty.  We also made two 60,000 liter concrete cisterns/reservoirs and put gutters on all lower campus buildings.  We had enough water last year, but with this severe drought, our crops died for lack of water.  Luckily, the kids were on holiday til Monday.  We still spend $250 on three trucks, which brought water for construction.

We need another large reservoir on the upper campus near the girls dorm.  But, it requires a large investment:  $6,000 - underground reservoir, $1,500 - gutters and downspouts, $1,000 - tall tank stand, $1,000 - large tank for stand, and $500 - pump.  $10,000 Total.  WATER IS LIFE!  Pray we find a way!"
