In 2022, he published the book &quot;Questa \u00e8 sempre casa tua&quot; (This is always your house), the proceeds of which went towards building a well in the village of Kinangali, Tanzania. There, families had to travel long distances to find water, which was usually of poor quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2022, 17 wells have been drilled, including in countries where the Missionaries do not have a presence. It is important not only to provide water to poor populations, but also to ensure its quality, since the consequences will be visible in terms of physical health, social dimension, agriculture, quality of life, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Iberian Province of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood has also been blessed with a well drilled in Guinea-Bissau, in one of the mission&#039;s villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you, Father Terenzio, for this magnificent initiative!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>J\u00e1 est\u00e1 em funcionamento o 17\u00ba po\u00e7o.
