"Sometimes I would like to ask God why He allows poverty, suffering, and injustice when He could do something about it."

"Well, why don't you ask Him?"

"Because I'm afraid He would ask me the same question."

We feel led to do something that has purpose for the Kingdom of Heaven. In “The Prayer of Jabez” one of the requests is “Oh that you would enlarge my territory!”  It’s a plea asking God to enlarge our lives so we can make a greater impact for Him. We want more influence, more responsibility, and more opportunity to make an impact in such a way that we touch more lives for His glory! 

We think that God is leading us to give clean water to needy communities in some of the poorest countries in the world. We know that “To whom much is given, much is required” (Luke 12:48), and in this country we are so very, very blessed.  We have been given more than enough resources to meet the needs of those living in poverty.  God ALWAYS rewards what has honored Him! In Heaven,  He will reward us for our acts of faithfulness to Him, right down to every cup of cold water we’ve given in his name (Mark 9:41).

Our project is called Project 320. The name "Project320" is inspired from the verse in Ephesians 3:20 - “Now glory be to God! By His mighty power at work within us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope!”  We know we have a big God who is going to do big things if we allow Him to use us for His glory!

Right now, almost a billion people on the planet don't have access to safe, clean drinking water. That's one person out of every six people!

Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of all sickness and disease. Many people in the developing world, usually women and children, walk more than three miles every day to fetch water that is likely to make them sick. Those hours are crucial, preventing many from working or attending school. Children are especially vulnerable to the consequences of unsafe water.  4,500 children die every day around the world because of exposure to dirty water. People are drinking from swamps.  It's water we wouldn't even walk in or give to our animals, but this is the water these children are drinking.

We desire to demonstrate the love of God by helping communities acquire desperately needed clean water, and to experience "living water" - the gospel of Jesus Christ, which alone satisfies the deepest thirst. .

Refuse to tolerate it, choose to change it. Will you donate? A $10 or $20 gift may be one small drop in a big bucket, but together our bucket will overflow! This isn't just water. This is opportunity...education...life. Please consider joining us in bringing clean water to our thirsty neighbors.

 

So there you have it.

We’re friends that share the same heart.

 

Friends who want to

Give more..

Be more.

Do more.

 

That is what we’re going to do here.

Work together.

 

Friends with one thing in common.

Wanting this life to matter.

To change lives.

While we ourselves are changed.

 

I invite you to be one such friend.

To use your life, your talents, your dreams, your resources, to do more to matter.

 

We are daring.

We are asking.

We are hoping.

 

Let’s go,
