Message from Mr. Cavey
Dear family and friends,
In John 13, Jesus taught us that true leadership begins with service to others. He knew that as we direct our attention to the needs of people around us, we gain healthy perspectives and build strong character.
In our Bible class, 8C students explored some of the facts surrounding the issue of poverty in our world today. Although the plight of the world's poor is not as bleak as it was a few decades ago, there are still many millions of people around the globe who lack basic necessities of life: food, clothing, shelter, medicine, and access to clean drinking water.
In the spirit of servanthood, we've agreed to respond to this issue as a class. Our goal is to raise enough money to provide a community with access to something we take for granted -- clean and reliable drinking water. This well will change the quality of life for many people, but it will also stand as a constant testimony to the goodness of the Living Water, Jesus.
Will you join us in serving the needs of our global community? We'd be grateful if you did.
Sincerely,
Mr. Cavey
About Jesus Wells
Read below to learn about where donations go.
Jesus Wells increase the health standards of a village, allowing for children to be nourished and animals to be watered. The wells you provide are located in the village or community, so women and children no longer have to walk hours to find water.
With one well you can save an entire village from waterborne illnesses.
Unlike the dirty water from stagnant ponds, streams or old shallow wells, this water is clean and creates an awareness of good hygiene, leading to fewer medical problems and healthier people.
