One More Push for the WELL!!

You all have been so helpful and open hearted in helping Pam Stahl reach her goal of raising $7,000.00 for a well providing clean water to those in need in Africa.

Pam’s email to me this morning was exhuberant and hopeful – could we post ONE MORE PUSH?

We are so close to the goal, right now only $1,300 away!

Here’s Pam’s story bringing us up to date on this momentous project:
Hi Friends!
Tomorrow is the big day.  EASTER and the Living Water Quilt drawing. Bonnie Hunter really helped stir things up earlier this week.
Thanks Bonnie---You're a dear.
I've got lots more to chat with you about and many assorted updates brewing, but for now I need to push on with this primary mission.  WATER FOR AFRICA!!

We are less than $1,300 away from hitting our $7,000 goal!!

Why $7,000?

When I was doing research on building a well, I found the cost of providing water to a community to range from $1,000 to $16,000 depending on what type of system would work for the situation and if there was already an infrastructure in place that just needed repairs.

Somehow $7,000 kept popping into my head, so I went with it....even though my doubting Thomas side said it wasn't possible.  My faithful side (always in some sort of conflict with the doubting Thomas in me) knew that if this goal was accomplished it would most definitely be by God's Mighty Hand and not of my own doing.  It gives me chills just writing that.

Please take some time to watch this video insight into the project and let your heart be led:

Please  donate towards the well.
Don't miss this opportunity to be a part of something wonderful.
many blessings,
Pam
We can do this.  It matters.  Clean water is life.  It’s as simple as that.  We can grow this remaining $1,300.00 quickly if you stretch yourself and donate $20 or more instead of $10, but of course, any amount you can give from your heart is worth so much to so many.

Happy Easter, Y’all --- after all, this is what it is all about.  What greater way to celebrate the season, than with a reason such as this.
