From the Guys - Short and Sweet!





Tyler Heffner - A great week with a lot of accomplishments and a lot of creative solutions. Its pretty amazing how things get done around here and how hard it is to find proper equipment and parts. Its a great thing that we have a great team. We managed to get the entire clinic wired and powered up with the solar, we got showers, tap stands, and sinks piped up to the water tank. We fixed one of solar pumps that just happened to quit during our stay at the farm, we fished frogs out of the tanks, and shocked the tanks with bleach. One of our last projects is to install lightning rods on the clinic. Things are going great.




Sam Ausen - Everyone is so friendly and appreciative if our help. And there is a good turnout. The team members are all so awesome and we are getting along just great. We love the hot weather and miss all of you at home and send our love. We are preparing to go to the jubilee celebration.



Stu Stevens- We have been working very hard every day and it feels gratifying! The team and people here are great. The farm is developing into a well oiled machine, I can't wait to see the fruit of everyones labor.


Note from Nadine: If you could have only seen all 4 of the guys in action!! I joked about them in the previous post, but seriously, it was amazing synchronization! They each had their special gifts and we needed each and every one to round out the projects for completion! I could not have designed a better team if I tried! But then again, the creator designed it...the good Lord knew who we needed and why and made it possible. Thanks to Mama Brenda who recruited her clan as well! Thanks also to Bob Wright, an amazing man who lives in Karamojo with his family at the presbyterian mission (also supported by Rocky Mountain Community Church of Billings), who contacted us after we both recieved a grant from NWGREF and offered to be our wholesale water and solar project dealer and consultant guy! After several emails and phone calls in country we finally met him on the last day! Another Godsend!
