Water in Barbancourt


For quite some time our well in Barbancourt has not been functioning and it was necessary for us to re-drill. Blue Ridge Ministries (a ministry here in Haiti dedicated to drilling wells) that had originally dug the first well opted to come back and re-drill a new well to try to find water that the people of Barbancourt need so desperately. Today after only drilling 300 feet, water was found and now we're able to retrieve water at eight gallons a minute and our hope is that the well will open up more and we will have an unlimited amount of clean water. To some people that might not seem like a big deal, but to have clean water is life to the people of Haiti. This water will not only give our school facilities clean water but it will be for the entire village in Barbancourt. It's something the people have long awaited. Praise the Lord for clean water!

  2. Thank God for that 8 gallons per minute!
    480 gal per hour is a big help, when all you have is canal water.
