Kaduna Water Well

Last harvest festival St. Lawrence church raised sufficient funds to sponsor a water well in Kaduna diocese, Nigeria. We are pleased to report that the village of Ungwan Barde has been selected to receive our water well. The well will be dug by hand during May and lined with concrete rings.

Ungwan Barde is a village about 30 miles South West of Kaduna.

You can see the map at:

Please also remember our Lent well appeal to help a village where infant mortality is 25%. So please put your small change into jam jar and either bring it to Easter service at St. Lawrence
or contact Ann and Jim Saxton (Tel: 01295 680613) for collection when full.

This site is maintained by villagers of Oxhill for the benefit of the community and those interested in the history, news and activities that make the village such a pleasant place to live.
