water, part 2 [update]

well, if any of you were curious about the outcome of the Lovelyn's plea for our help, that i wrote about in my last post...

$1700 needed to be raised to fund the one well at the one facility. 


but, of course, in the way that only He can, and in the way that is so true to His character, God has blown us away.


the total raised was 


$5661. 27


that's over three times what was needed.


to Him be all the glory.

after all that they've suffered [and will likely continue to suffer] i can't help but think that these children, who will finally be gaining access to clean drinking water, would so appreciate the promise of Revelation 7:17 [so much more than any of us could ever really appreciate]


"For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living waterAnd God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.




i hope that some of you were able to contribute!

you can read what Love had to say [here].
