Message
Thinking about how great a cup of clean water is on a hot summer day, we can't imagine having to walk so far just to get a cup of pond water. If we all work together, we can give clean water to people in an Asian village who don't have any right now. Let's send Jesus's love to a village with a new well. With that, they will also receive some "Living Water"! The King will reply, "I tell you the truth, Inasmuch as you have done such things for the least of my brothers and sister, you have done the same for me."
Some of you know me from my work with Chapin Living Waters, a Christian ministry that helps people in 3rd world countries grow food when there is little or no water. But it's more important for people to have enough water just to drink. That is why I am passionate about bringing Jesus Wells to areas first. Later they can plant a garden and grow enough food for themselves with low cost/low tech drip irrigation.
Please watch the short video below that explains more about Jesus Wells and why your donation is a good investment!
No donation is too small!
When we reach our goal, we will have a celebration here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin!
Blessings
Richard and Naomi Dassow
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.
