We started off the day with a great devotion on the power of prayer, which we soon saw proved in our lives. The truck wouldn't start, and after three hours of trying different things, there seemed to be no progress. Finally, the problem seemed to be fixed, and we all gathered around the truck for one final prayer. The truck started with no problem. As Kevin said, "It must have been that last prayer." We finally arrived at the drilling site around 1:00. When the drilling rig was set up, and it began running, the drill was turning backwards. A quick phone call back to the States, and then we began to rewire things.
Once that problem was fixed, things went fairly smoothly. The drill went down to eighty-five feet. Near the end of the day, the drill bit began to clog. We had to pull out most of the pipes before it began to work again, but everything is ready for tomorrow. Praise God for his faithfulness!
The kids club went even better than the drilling. About seventy kids showed up. After a good game of fútball (soccer), we went inside, where we taught them a couple songs and had a quick Bible lesson. The kids didn't want to leave!
