Today we broke into two groups and went to each of our sites. David, Bill, Nancy and Steve went to El Asintal. Linda, Sally, Fred, Jean and Eric went to Mazatenango.
The church in El Asintal had built a new room to house the pump and filters as well as bottle washing. David and Bill were able to accomplish the system install in one day. Awesome! Tomorrow is checking for leaks, teaching to clean and operate.
Arriving at the church.

The Education and Hygiene segment was led by Jean and Eric, who had 28 students and 3
teachers. Education went well, and was even on schedule to our surprise
and joy. We also went over the lesson plans with the teachers, so when
we return on Saturday, they can teach the lessons to their kids. This
will allow them to maintain both the water system and education of good
hygiene long after we have returned home.
