Returns from the Palelai Orphan Home with Damage Assessment
The damage from the flood water was worse than previously predicted and the rain
water continues to wash down from the surrounding community.
As soon as a land fill can be brought in, a new kitchen and fence will
need to be constructed as well as a two foot addition to the pre-existing
foundation.
The septic system has also contaminated the water from the well and caregivers
now have to boil rain water for the kids to drink.
Children are beginning to show signs of sores from having to wade in the
contaminated water.

God to watch over them and meet their long term and emergency needs.
The children play, eat, sleep, and worship on the
second floor of the home.
