We use and try to teach a method called SODIS (solar disinfection) here, in which we fill a clear bottle 3/4 full with water and then shake it for about 20 seconds to increase oxygen levels. Then the bottle is filled to the top and put out on a corrugated metal roof or piece of metal in the sun for 6 hours. It is a free and very effective way of killing bacteria! We do also filter ours to get the bits out! Others do a kind of sand filtering as well, which is easily possible in villages. But really good are the rainwater harvesting tanks, which Andy Sharpe with us in EI here, does. The rainwater is really clean to start with!

We meet weekly at Steve and Christina Stewart's, with a group committed to missions at home and abroad. S and C are right now in Nicaragua where they have set up a medical clinic for the time they are there, and are distributing water filters, among other things. The filters are quite amazing, and will provide clean water for years for quite a few families. Only $65!!!!! They used to make clay water filters, but have found these ones which are much much easier to carry and use! I think you need a supply of these filters in Tanzania. When the Stewarts are back, I'm going to inquire about the filters! I love to read your entries. I have been slow to respond though I always read what you post, as I found all my responses to your site and to Andrea Boettcher's, on Google linked to my name! It must be the way I set them up. I am going to try to post anonymously this time. I continue to pray for you, giving thanks for your flexibility and faith!<br />Love LuellaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099573221371512306.post-81568139356347235842013-07-08T13:13:58.403-07:002013-07-08T13:13:58.403-07:00Great stories!Great stories!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
