Drought has been looming over Kenya for many years, threatening the lives of millions of people in this east African country. Supreme Master Ching Hai was extremely concerned about the situation and instructed fellow initiates to help local inhabitants drill wells in order to secure a water supply. Fellow initiates immediately went to Kenya to establish necessary contacts and start well-drilling projects. So far, we have successfully drilled three wells in Kangundo, Masai and Nakuru Prison in western Kenya*, thus alleviating the water shortage problem for tens of thousands of local people.

Thanks to God’s loving grace, the fourth well was recently drilled in Ukokolani, about 256 km from the capital Nairobi, to ease the severe water shortage caused by parched conditions. As soon as the drill began to rotate with a rumbling sound, heavy rain began. Overjoyed inhabitants told us that there had been no rain for three years in this area, but as soon as we came to drill a well, there was a torrential downpour. It was indeed a miracle!

According to the manager of the drilling works company, Kenya has been inflicted with drought for a long time. Yet, each time his company signed a drilling contract with our Association, there would always be some rain, even a light one on a sunny day. This was an auspicious sign. We remember Master once said that rain is a blessing from Heaven. Therefore, these auspicious signs represent God’s infinite love and grace for Kenya.

With God’s grace, the drilling went smoothly and the well has recently been opened for use. It has benefited thousands of inhabitants in the Ukokolani area, who are extremely grateful to Master for Her love and concern. It was wonderful news that as our wells were successfully drilled one after another, the rainy season in Kenya has come surprisingly earlier than usual this year, and rainfall has been abundant. Everywhere we look, we see lush scenes of new life and greenery that have replaced the dry and sandy scenes of drought. The local people attributed it to miracles by God! We believe that, blessed with God’s love, Kenya will become better and more beautiful, its people will enjoy better livelihoods, and the nation will advance toward a bright and hopeful tomorrow.
