Two years ago, I traveled with an organization called Wishing Well Africa: Water for the World
to Rwanda to document the water crises. While we were there, we were told about a new well being drilled by Living Water that charity: water funded. We were so excited to see a bore hole drilled for the first time. It was in the village of Murinja that we met Jean Bosco. My favorite image ever taken was of him there. Two years later, I go back with charity: water to monitor projects and walked around with a photo of Jean Bosco…..asking if anyone knew where he was. Today, we found him. Two years older, two years wiser. Truly, the best day of my Life. You can read his water story here: http://bit.ly/r5GYf

But at this time there is actually one particular factor I am not really too cozy with and whilst I attempt to reconcile that with the core theme of your issue, permit me observe just what all the rest of your readers have to say.Nicely done.

  7. [...] for years. I still have people write me about how Jean Bosco’s story connected with them. In 2010, I traveled back to Murinja village and found Jean Bosco still walking back and forth to his well. It was quite an overwhelming reunion [...]
