Water Projects

Water Projects are a good example of how your support of Global CHE Enterprises is multiplied many times by other financial supporters, people who go as Short Term Teams to help, and our in country staff and trainers whom you support with your generous gifts.

Each fall, following the typhoon and rainy season, Deer Creek Church and Littleton Bible Chapel from Colorado have come together to send short term mission teams to serve Guatemala. Previously they raised support to send a portable drilling rig and a diesel truck to tow it. This year three teams of about 12 will come together to work on four projects.

1 - Tres A Calle- Tercera Calle
This village is a “church plant” from the villages of Monte Cristo and La Nueva Gomera. The village was hit hard by a recent typhoon which wiped out its church building. In addition to helping rebuild the church, teams will install a well and tower, organize a VBS and conduct medical and dental clinics.

2 - Paul- (“Pa-ul”) is a high mountain community at 10,000 feet. Its church (4 concrete block walls – no floor or roof) was also destroyed by the typhoon. A team will serve the village with reconstruction, a well and tower, VBS and medical needs.

3 - Nuevo Palmercito- Palmarcito
This village of 8,000 people lost its entire water supply in the recent storms. A team will assist the village in developing a short term water supply until a permanent solution can be developed.

4 - Community Health Demonstration Farm- If time permits, a team will help build a water diversion spring box on this farm to be used in training communities about water system development.
