This is a  race against time.  Bottled water and water purification tablets are being distributed. Water filtration systems are being set up.  World Relief, our main partner in Haiti, has reported that they have access to a well drilling rig, so they will begin drilling bore wells. They are waiting on submersible pumps to arrive from the US. Under normal circumstances each person needs at least one gallon of water a day for drinking and about three gallons of water for washing and cooking. Let\u2019s pray that the water will come in time and that there will be enough for all in need.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-report-this\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/cwr?moderation_action=report_form&#038;object_type=post&#038;object_id=296&#038;width=250&#038;height=300\" class=\"thickbox\" title=\"Report This Post\">Report This Post<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before the earthquake less than half the population of Haiti had access to potable water.
