On Monday we were finally able to pull the pump, thanks to the Blue Ridge Mission's rig. We discovered that we were going to have to replace the pump. Kyrk did not think that it would be possible to find the pump here in country, but thought we would try anyway. It truly is a miracle that we were able to locate the exact pump that we need and it is only costing us a little bit more then it would if we purchased it in the states. God is good and really knew that we needed this well to work again.
We are hoping that Blue Ridge can come back up next week to put the new pump down the well and that we will once again have a water supply.
Currently we have a director's training seminar taking place at the mission. There are over 200 directors and/or teachers here for this training. It is so exciting to see what God is doing through this training and how key educators are learning what it means to have an integrated Christian education and are getting excited about implementing their newly learned knowledge in their schools.
Yesterday I was delightfully surprised to see a wonderful lady from Atrel who had worked with us while we were there. She is the preschool teacher at the Atrel school and is here for the training seminar. Along with her were 2 others, a director of a school close to Atrel and another teacher from Atrel. It was so neat to see her again. It was like seeing an old friend. God is really giving us a heart for the people in that area and it is exciting to see how he continues to bring them across our path.
It is very encouraging that these 3 teachers/ directors are here from Atrel, so that when we do start a training center in Atrel there will already be those who have had some training and can share with others how important and beneficial it is.
