Message
Dear friends in Christ,
My family has been involved with GFA for over seven years, and recently God has put on my heart to raise money for a Jesus Well. Jesus Well's help not only people who are thirsting for water, but also those who are thirsting for the Gospel. I would feel so very blessed to be able to help needy people both physically and spiritually. In South Asia, finding water that will not cause death in the family is a difficult challenge many face. Women and children are forced to walk hours a day to find water sources such as filthy ponds or lakes, which are oftentimes contaminated with waterborne illnesses. Sometimes they know this will bring death and sickness to their families, but they have no other option. Gospel for Asia’s clean water ministry fights this clean water crisis head on. Through practical resources such as Jesus Wells or BioSand water filters, you can save their children from death and open the door to share Christ’s love. A Jesus Well provides pure water for an entire village full of thirsty people for only $1000. With clean water, the health of the people improves significantly. Since a Jesus Well is drilled deep into the ground, it is less likely to dry up during the hot summers in Asia. Through the provision of clean water, villagers are open to hearing about the God who loves them and provides for their needs. Whether you received an email or a letter from me, I thank you for taking the time to come onto this website, and ask that you would please pray for these people that are in so much need, and that enough money could be raised for a much needed Jesus Well. If you are unable to give a monetary gift, please know that your prayers are just as beneficial. God bless you all.
A Friend in Christ,
Margaret
"Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life." John 4:14
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.
