Farwell from Kamakwie Hospital

  Hello Everyone!

This may be the last blog update for awhile.  We want to thank all of you for praying for us and keeping us before the Lord.  We leave tomorrow for Freetown, Sierra Leone, and then meet up with another team and travel East to the town of Panguma.  The closest power is about 12 miles away.  I don't know if they have any email, so please keep praying as we do our final survey.

Today was our final day at Kamakwie Hospital and we praise the Lord for all He allowed us to accomplish.  For example, He enabled us to get the 50kw generator running and to adjust the hertz on both generators from 41hz to 50hz.  By doing this it also improved the voltage from 180 to 225 – everyone is happy.

And as a bonus, the Lord led us to find a fault in one of the lines that provides power to about 8 national staff homes.  They have been without power for nearly 3 weeks.  By correcting this problem – everyone is happy. 

Lord willing, this will be a great opportunity in the future for I-TEC to install a large solar system and completely rewire the hospital.  Please keep an eye on our website to follow the progress and plans for the future.

Serving Together,

Tom and Linda
