Project Success
Our beans and rice project went well. Our goal had been to raise enough money for one well, which with a matching grant would dig two wells in Nicaragua. Instead, we were able to raise enough money for 4 wells, which with the matching grant will be 8! Praise the Lord!
We learned a lot during the week about how people in poverty live, about the people group we're helping with the wells, and about the Lord. The kids did really well with it, and it was a great experience.

Wow! 8 wells is awesome! What an excellent way to remind us to appreciate what we have and to help others.
Glad it was so successful and that your efforts to help others were so blessed!
Thanks, Kevin and Deven!
