Our first water borehole has proved to be a big disappointment, yielding only a few hundred litres per day.

Fortunately it was guaranteed for 1 year and the drillers are back today to have another go. Pray that it will be a success this time.

We’ll have a little bit of work to move the solar equipment etc, but hoping it will solve the water problem.

The local planning officer from the DCs office has requested a meeting at the Saidi site today.

Please pray that this won’t last to any unnecessary difficulty complying with planning requirements.

Update

The meeting was uneventful and no undue burdens were placed in the development work.

It’s a real cause for thanksgiving that the reconditioned Brake Master Cylinder we brought for the Land Cruiser send to have resolved its braking problem. There are a few other ongoing issues with the car, as to be expected with such an old vehicle, but this gives us some heart that it’s worth continuing to work on it.

Also very glad to report that the Adblue problem with the Mitsubishi truck send to have been resolved. Thanks for praying.

Regrettably there is not much progress with the Isuzu which is still of the road with engine problems. The mechanic working in it has given lots of excuses, and we frankly don’t know what to believe. He has requested another week or so to resolve it, but if has been going on for many months already, so this doesn’t instill a lot of confidence. Please pray.

We have just taken delivery of a supply of cartons for the hygiene pack ministry.

If you are interested in helping assemble hygiene packs, please get in touch with us. We are grateful for all help with this important work.
