Grinding Mill Used in Boma

After years of inactivity, Andrew Mbabe and Josiah Wakefield were able to make repairs to our grinding mill in July 2019. These modern day MacGyvers were able to spot weld the bullet holes and clean sand from the motor.

When our team arrived last month with fuel, one of the first things we did was to crank up the grinding mill. As you can see from the pic on the left, people are now lining up to have their grain ground into flour. What had taken the village women hours of labor to do can now be done in a matter of seconds.

The video below provides visual insight into the effectiveness of the grinding mill. Praise the Lord and thank you for your generous gifts enabling us to bring fuel to Boma to power this machine!

It was exciting to see firsthand the start-up of the grinding mill after 6+ years of inactivity. This will be a huge blessing to the families in Boma and people will come from miles around to use this mill. Check out the first start-up.

Will You Please Help?

The people of Boma could surely use your help. In order to increase the farming project that will feed 200 school children, we need to start growing food now. Since schools will reopen in January, farm land must be cultivated and planted immediately. Please consider a gift to help us farm more land in September and October. Thank you!
