OGT Water Purification System Continues to Bring Clean Water to Parottee, Jamaica
Orphan Grain Train’s state-of-the-art water filtration system is still being used in Jamaica. The system is set up in Parottee, Jamaica, in St. Elizabeth Parish, on the southwest coast of the island. Andre and Andrew., two local residents, are still maintaining the large blue high-volume desalination system. They said that they are handing out the purified water five days a week. Since Hurricane Melissa hit Jamaica in October 2025, there are still communities without clean drinking water easily available to them. Andrew and Andre serve over 2,000 people a month, handing out gallons of clean water where there is none. Thank you, Andre, Andrew and Justin for managing and maintaining this system with such care, so that clean water is available to more people. Thank you, donors for your support of this on-going mission.
We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain.
Hebrews 6:19 NIV
