Project Bullet Tree Falls ~ Completed!

Posted by Webster on Dec 28, 2011

The Bullet Tree Falls (B.T.F.) water project was adopted and funded by a private donor through ROWKids. A team from Low Country Community Church of Bluffton/Hilton Head Island, South Carolina arrived November 12^th, 2011 to assist Water Missions Belize with the implementation of the water unit in the community, and Health & Hygiene teachings in the schools.

Preparing a building to house the Living Water System

We are very thankful to the team for helping with constructing the building that the water unit was being placed in. We built it basically from the ground up in four days; hot sun and temperatures did not deter this group!

On November 17^th, 2011 the B.T.F. community held their inauguration and celebration of the water treatment unit. It was a festive night with students from many different ages and grades giving some wonderful presentations for the villagers. The Team also participated in this community event by giving personal testimonies and delivering the Living Water Message of Jesus Christ to the gathered community. Free water samples were also given out to all those attending.

All systems go!

A week later, we completed the project by getting the water system fully functional, up and running for the benefit of the community. We are happy to say that the B.T. F. community is being distributed safe, clean, drinking water. School children and village residents will no longer be exposed to contamination now that they are being provided with the safe water that everyone in B.T.F. deserves.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported Water Missions Belize in any way to see this project to completion, but a special thank you to Mr. Jorge Aguallo for donating the posters to advertise the community celebration around the community.
