Though the digging of wells in some parts of the world have to remain on hold because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re excited to report that some clean-water projects have been able to move forward.

Issa Keitoumar, one of our on-ground partners in Chad, recently sent a report about the well inaugurations in Chad so far this year. Living Water Projects funds helped dig wells in the following community villages: Bagaou, Ham Bogol, Wadang, Billiam-Oursi and Karsao.

“Digging a well in [a] village is a great blessing for all the people living in the community,” Issa writes. “Our plan is to get more wells for the community because, for a population of 12,000 or 15,000 people, only one well is not fair. As we inaugurated the wells we put people in the villages to take care of the new wells and [taught them] how to maintain it in case the well broke. Our joy is that water wells open doors for us to present Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior to the communities.”
