Living Water Campaign

One of our global partners for this year and for coming years is Living Water International.

Here are some statistics shared with me that truly disturbed me and I pray disturbs you too:

• A child dies every twenty one seconds from drinking contaminated water.
• More than 2.2 million people will die each year because of contaminated water issues. That is the equivalent of 20 jumbo jets crashing every day.
• More people die each year from drinking dirty water than from the world's hurricanes, floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes combined.
• Over a billion people face a daily crisis of bad water.

To be honest, it is senseless. We can put an end to this devastation and that is exactly what we are going to try to do. Living Water is an incredible organization that builds wells to provide clean water in third world countries who wouldn't otherwise have access to clean water.

I also love this organization because they meet the physical need of people (clean water) AND they are intentional about meeting the spiritual need of people by providing the hope of the Living Water (Jesus).

I met with a representative from Living Water about a week ago and I am excited about the potential of what Elevate Church can do to make a difference globally through this ministry.

Join me in praying for God's leading as we team up with this incredible organization to share the love of Jesus in a practical way to many people.
