Nepal Earthquake | Through the Rubble
Tim proceeded to learn more about this community. The villagers took him to the spring where they collect water. It's completely dry, aside from a muddy puddle. A medical team found many cases of severe diarrhea in the kids of Pokhari, a clear result of the terrible water. Tim visited a few other communities in the mountains, finding similar situations. Dirty, muddy, "dusty," undrinkable water. Yet in the midst of his assessments showing great need, he was met with unbelievable hospitality.
Tim was welcomed, given food and tea (above), and shown generosity by people with houses that have tumbled down. They have hospitality and hope amidst the greatest catastrophe that has faced their country.
Join us in prayer for the people of Nepal, and may we learn to give generously from their example.To those who have given, we thank you. Because of the earthquake and unbelievable devastation, communities that have never before had safe water will be able to taste it very soon. To give safe water to communities in Nepal, donate here.
