Gargon Retreat Center Solar Panel Project
Until recently the Gargon retreat center relied on butter lamps and candles to provide lighting at night. Due to the grace and generosity of this project's donors and the hard work of the local residents, however, this limited form of lighting and lack of electricity has now been replaced with a new solar panel system. Below you will find some of the photos from this project's installation and completion.
The Gargon Retreatants express their heart-felt thanks and best wishes to all those who have helped make this project a success!
