Not only was fresh, clean drinking water offered but so was Living water. Through evangelism, preaching, the Jesus film, children's ministry many lives were forever changed as they learned about the water that would make them never thirst again. Jesus came and filled many thirsty hearts and lives.
We praise Jesus for those that sacrificed and gave a cup of cold water in Jesus Name! Many doors are now opened for ongoing discipleship, church planting, empowerment projects and education. On behalf of Jesus, we say 'thank you'!
