Lydia's Painted Rock


Here's Lydia with a rock she painted as a craft during a week spent with the other kids of our team during field forum. The big kids helped the little ones. I think God designed it to work that way. And this week it really did!

Summer Storm

Now I don't have pictures to prove this, but yesterday at the job site in Bolgan I saw snowflakes...on August 23rd. I was watching the cold rain, mesmerized by the 45 degree angle at which it was coming down in waves. Then if possible, the wind picked up even more, and I saw a few chunks of solid matter dancing through the air. Seems like winter is on the way.

Hand Dug Well



Here's a picture of Ganzorig about about 20 feet below. It took him and a team about a week to dig this hole. Then it had to be dig even deeper. They pumped and dug in waste deep water simultaneously to make the well about 5 feet deeper than this, before installing casing and an underground storage tank. It was a dirty muddy job.

Today the water comes out as clear as any tapwater, with similar water pressure powered by a small electric pump.
