Starting the Sakeji Dorm Roof

On March 16th we started the new roof at the back of the dorm.  It required new rafters to be built as we were replacing a two slope roof to one slope.  Trying to match the cottage end was a challenge but we got it adjusted.  These are some pictures of the beginning  of the project.

Sakeji Mission School Roof Project

In the middle of March the team,  Ken, Jack, Tim, Nathan, Ryan and Henry headed to Sakeji to begin the roofing of the student dorm.  It was nice to be back at the school, to meet old friends and former students.  The food is great especially the pineapples.

Speaking at the church at Chitokoloki

One Sunday I had opportunity to speak at the Church at Chitokoloki.  A lab tech from the hospital translated for me.  It is sometimes strange speaking thru an interpreter as some of our Canadian sayings are not easily changed to Lunda.

The Following Pictures

Below I have posted some pictures of the well drilling time at Chitokoloki.  The first picture is of a Corn Planter, donated from Canada that we assembled in the work shop.  Next is a photo of Ed Miller and myself working on the solar pump at the School. Next we have a picture of the hospital water tower.  I had to climb to the top and install and new float switch.  The final photo in this is of a village church that we visited on one Sunday.

Fixing Wells at Chitokoloki

Well drilling done off to Sakeji

Well drilling at chitokoloki has gone well. We repaired a number of
wells, got pumps working at the hospital school and the water tower.
We drilled some new wells in village and a new well at the leprocy
colony.
Today March 11th we flew north to Sakeji Mission School to install a
new roof on the dorm. I will try to post some pictures of Chit and
Sakeji.
