Rosette’s First Words After Clean Water
The celebration for the completion of the first phase of a water project in Rosette’s community of Irimya was a full-circle moment.
You’ve been hearing the story of this brave woman for over a year now.
She lived her entire life without clean water. Growing up, she shared water with dangerous wildlife like elephants, and other animals that spread diseases.
So, when Rosette leaned over to turn on the tap for the first time, she laughed, “My eye was watching to see if that water had frogs in it! But I am so happy the water is clean and pure!”
Imagine what you might have expected after a lifetime of only dirty water.
This is a much bigger story that we are each a part of – together with Rosette and her community.
After more than a year’s worth of prayer, pledges, pipe-laying, and persistence, the water is in their hands: 37 taps are now flowing clean, safe water to 7,000 people!
“I am so happy to see we are turning on water from the tap. I know from today that we are going to develop ourselves. My daughter will have a better life. Thank you so much for bringing light to us.” – Rosette
