** Water Walk ** Sunday, November 14th **
Sunday, November 14th our church has an incredible opportunity to partner with an organization founded by the band, Jars of Clay. With help from churches and individuals, students and adults, Blood:Water Mission has raised millions of dollars to provide life-saving, clean water and health needs to people of some 800 African communities. With this money great efforts have been made to combat the HIV/AID crises in Africa, as well as establishing thousands of clean water wells to groups of people who would otherwise die without it. Please join us from 3:30-6pm (before evening church) on Nov. 14th. We will load on the church bus, travel to Richard and Renee Sims’ house, and start our Water Walk, where we will walk approx. 2 miles to a water source at gather water. This will give us the opportunity to experience, in a small way, the life that so many people of Africa live daily. It will draw our attention to the needs of another people, and give us the opportunity to HELP in whatever ways we can. Throughout the month of November our church will be collecting money in water bottles, our goal is $1,000, this money will be donated to partner with Blood:Water Mission efforts in Africa. This amount of money could help to repair a poorly implemented water well in Uganda or Zambia, or help to supply 150 people with BioSand filters to help reduce the likelihood of illness from contaminated drinking water. Please be apart of this! Just $1 can help provide clean drinking water to 1 African for 1 year!
