Living Water International
Short version:
Living Water Interntional goes to third-world contries and digs fresh water wells. It’s amazing. $10 gives fresh water to a child for life. We’ve been giving to them for the last 3 years. This is real stuff. We know people who have seen and helped first hand. Please check out their site and consider giving.
Long Version:
For the past few years my family and I have been going to my in-law’s church for Christmas Eve service. They go to an amazing church called Windsor Crossing. The pastor there was instrumental in starting a group call Advent Consipriacy. This group’s basic message is that people should take back Christmas by giving to people in need instead of getting sucked up in consumerism. One of the major groups they back is an organization called Living Water International. Their mission statement:
Living Water International exists to demonstrate the love of God by helping communities acquire desperately needed clean water, and to experience “living water”—the gospel of Jesus Christ—which alone satisfies the deepest thirst.
In its 16-year history, they’ve served 6500 communities in 25 countries, delivering clean water to more than 9.5 million people every day.

I’m really excited about exploring this training to keep my family safe. The local and federal governments should really get the word out about this.
