Mission to Mozambique
Our Father blessed us with the opportunity to return to Mozambique in May of 2008. This time, with the help
of many people in the village, Mike Herbert, Jeff Callicott, Case Mundy and Tom Dake completed a well-drilling project. Many
thanks to Healing Every Nation and Pastor Miguel Viegas' of Igreja De Jesus Christo, Missao Thoera. See our Outreach
page for more information about Healing Every Nation.
|
| The people of Thoera were relying on hand-dug wells (often contaminated) or the dangerous river |
|
| It takes water to drill for water - HEN loaned us this truck to transport water from the river |
|
| Once the community dug the pits, we mixed our drilling fluid in tanks then poured it into the pits |
|
| Each piece of drill pipe is added by hand and then drills down five feet at a time |
|
| After reaching a formation of sand and gravel, we stopped drilling and found plentiful water |
|
| Mike and Jeff lower the rising main (a two-inch pipe within the well casing) |
|
| More helpers from the village helped lay brick to make the platform of the well pump |
|
| The Afridev is one of the most common pumps, and it went together without much trouble |
|
| The final product - a well that produces more than 14 gallons per minute |
|
| Pastor Miguel Viegas leads a small congregation in Thoera and asked for Bibles - we obliged with 14 |
National Day of Prayer 2008
The National Day of Prayer service in Crosby, TX. VineLife pastor, Jeff Callicott, and members of our fellowship
joined with the Body of Christ in our area to pray and intercede for our communities and nation. This time of unity
and humility before God is very close to our heart because it was a priority for our Lord - Ephesians 4:12-14, John 17:22-24
Baby Dedication
We love our children and know that their best hope is a life filled with God's blessings. At a baby dedication
service, we pray for the newest additions to our families and thank the Lord for His precious gifts to us.
Fun and Games
Volleyball games are often played after the service. We are always looking for an opportunity to gather together
and have fun.
