How Does Your Garden Grow? With a New Irrigation System!
The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.
1 Corinthians 3:8-9
We are celebrating a new Irrigation system!
DearFriends,
Who wouldhave ever thought we would be sharing news about irrigation systems in Bulike!I look forward each month to publishing our updates in one place and alsowriting a special message to you, and this month is so exciting; it's been allabout water, and in spite of internet and phone disruptions, we are goingforward with God’s plans to meet the needs of the families here in Bulike &Buluya.
I wanted toshare some seasonal information with you that shows how important our nextsteps are. Spring is the short rainy season here (March through May) followedby the extremely dry months of June through August which can be a devastatingtime for our crops as you will see in the video. However, thanks to UCSS donorswho have partnered with us in irrigation, we are hoping to turn this around andsave many more lives.

Moreover, webelieve this is yet one more step in breaking cycle of poverty that has longgripped our people and this land. Of the 12 UCSS Farms, one now has anirrigation system that has sparked hope for so many as they see a way to have,not only food year-round, but sustainable income as well. This prospect offersthe opportunity to plant and harvest throughout the year.
So, as we end this month and begin a new season on the calendar, it is my prayer that you know the depths of gratitude that go into each word in this and every email and newsletter. This life-changing transformation here in Bulike would not be possible without you. It is also my prayer that you would consider partnering with our water ministry in bringing irrigation to all our farms. One plants, another waters, and we all thank God for the increase.
Standing with You,
Ronald
