It was through Father Luigi that we received two requests regarding the water problem, always an issue in the regions of Thailand where the Camillian missionaries work, especially during drought periods. The first request came from Khokwat leprosary, the second one came from Chaingrai, where Fratel Gianni leads a center that houses many children. Being problems of considerable emergency, both requests were immediately taken care of.
The enlargement of the “Camillian Social Center Chiangrai”, that receives hundreds of children and youths coming from tribes of North Thailand and provides them with instruction and support, needed one other well to guarantee the access to drinking water, that is mainly scarce during the Summer. Thanks to the association’s contribution, pumps have been purchased, and a well has been dug down to ground water that will ensure water supply all along the year.
The work done in Khokwat leprosary consists in the channeling of rainwater collected during the rainy season, thus allowing to have enough water for the irrigation of the vegetable plot and the fruit orchard. The vegetables are used to feed the lepers and elders housed in the center, while most of the fruit is sold, thus contributing to the self-sufficiency of the center by producing a considerable income.

Your Names
YOUR NAMES
(To all benefactors)
We had written
your names
on the walls of our house.
But the coming rain
and the passing time
erased them.
And then,
we wrote them
on flower petals,
but the sun made them fade
and the evening wind
took them far away.
And so then,
we wrote them
in our hearts...
And neither the sun,
nor the wind,
nor the passing time
will ever erase them
