H C T V plans its last trip for the year...

As the year draws to a close, we are taking stock and planning for our next trip in early December which will be our last trip for this year.

Thanks to your support, we are now looking into buying our own BP (blood pressure) & glucose testing kits. All this time, we were borrowing for each trip & just paying for the cost of the strips. Now that our trips are regular, we feel that it'll be more practical for us to get our own equipment. We still do not have our own vehicle, and will have to be renting another vehicle for this trip.

During this trip, we'll also be finalising our plans for CWTV (Clean Water To Villagers) - materials needed & time involved. We aim to have clean water supply for this village by early next year, and although we do not have the required funds in hand yet, we need to plan our work & be ready for the funds which will hopefully arrive in time. Lives are at stake, and "we cannot stand idly by, enjoying our own riches and freedom if, in any place the Lazarus of the twentieth century [or any century] stands at our doors.” (Pope John Paul II)
