Water projects, schools, friends and fufu: an update from the DRC

A meeting at Mpululu Mbambu; about 100 residents of village attended a 90 minute presentation in which we (Ro and Glo, Eddy Matondo, Eric Kahunda and Felix Wampatu) urged them to show us that they were prepared to have us submit a request to build a water system in their village.

A picture of Eddy with three older men who reside in the village and are members of our church.  They wanted to escort us out of the village. The only access to the village we know of is down a steep ravine, so we had to leave our car several kilometers away and walk in.
