A little good news about the orphanage.

Masa tells me that the sleeping quarters building is nearly complete -- the only thing it needs now is a roof. Everything is always one step at a time.

And she had wonderful news in that a man who digs wells offered to dig a well for the children to have clean water to drink for only $400 -- but Masa has to buy the materials. This is an excellent offer since the other offers she had were for from $2,000 to $3,000 dollars. The good news is the well has been dug and water has been found -- praise the Lord -- now all that is needed is to purchase all the materials to support the walls of the well and also to make it easy to access the water.

[Update 3-22-2010 -- I talked with Masa again and found out that they are still digging the well, by hand, and have hit a huge stone barrier and are having a hard and dangerous time getting through it. I asked her about finding water, and she said that yes, they had, but the well needed to be deeper. I am sorry to say I don't under stand all this but know that they are doing what needs to be done. Please pray for the men digging the well that they will be safe. They are doing this all by hand and will need the Lord's help to get through the rock they've come upon.]

I am always amazed by how the Lord works and is working for these children. Please pray for Trinity Children Center in Liberia. If you can afford to send a donation of any size that would be greatly appreciated.

Grateful to be in Christ with you,
Marcia
