Bio-sand water filters are:

• Concrete, made using a steel mould, with a plastic pipe running up the side to make a spout.

• Transported in a variety of ways, mainly by a donkey cart. 
  

• Installed in homes, doctors’ surgeries and schools by Joseph, the workshop manager.
  
• Filled with carefully measured amounts of sand and gravel. 
  
• Have dirty wather poured through daily, and after three weeks a biological layer of beneficial bacteria forms on the surface. These bacteria feed on the harmful bacteria in the water and the end product pours out of the spout, perfectly clean.

Jesus said, ‘Come to me all you who are thirsty and I will give you living water.’
