Good news

  

As many of you already know, earlier this year a team from Grace Baptist Church traveled to Haiti, with the intention to drill a water well in the community of Merger. We drilled 210 ft. to no avail; the water was unusable, it was too high in sulfur. We worked on other projects but still left Haiti a little disappointed because of the failure to leave the community with clean water. 

Haiti Arise hosted us while we were in Haiti and after the team traveled back to Canada, Haiti Arise distributed some water filters in the community of Merger to help the community until we find a final solution to the water issues.  

Until we can find a company that can find a fix for high sulfur water, we have decided to build a water cistern for the community of Merger. It will provide clean and safe water, for which they would need to pay a small price per bucket.  The reason a price would be attached is to make sure that there is always water in the cistern. To start Haiti Arise will buy a couple of truckloads of water to put in the cistern and the money collected for each bucket bought will help to buy the next truck of water.  

Keep us in your prayers because we will not rest while the community of Merger is without clean water.

Thanks for all your support
