Some haul it from a nearby stream where people also bathe  and wash  laundry. Some haul it from small, dirty springs that are often  muddied  by livestock. Some gather it from puddles when it rains. None  of them  have access to clean water, and many suffer from water-borne  illnesses  like typhoid and dysentery.<\/p>\n<p>When we began working in  Las Moras, we immediately identified clean water as one of the  community&#8217;s critical  needs. The remote location, depth and size of the  well, and equipment needed to  provide clean water placed an early cost  estimate at $20,000. We are now earnestly seeking funds with the  hope of raising enough money to drill the well in May  2012. The goal  is to make clean water available for all the people who  live there,  including our team.<\/p>\n<p><em>Would you pray with us that God would provide the money for the well?\u00a0 Would you also pray that God would use us to show His Love to the community?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Would you like to help finance a well for Las Moras?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">Call <strong>New Tribes Mission&#8217;s<\/strong> Finance Office at <strong>1-866-547-2460<\/strong> to donate with a credit card.\u00a0 Specify your gift is for the <strong>Mexico Fund &#8211; Well Project.<\/strong><a href=\"mailto:finance-office_hq@ntm.org\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">OR, send a check made out to <strong>New Tribes Mission<\/strong> to<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><em>New Tribes Mission<br \/>\n1000 East First Street<br \/>\nSanford, Florida 32771<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">with a note saying it is for <strong>&#8220;the Mexico Fund &#8211; Well Project&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\">Either way, you will receive a tax-deductible receipt.<strong> THANK YOU!<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Las Moras, Mexico, the Nahuatl people have few options for water.
