Message from Picnic and Praise in the Park
None of us can do what ALL of us can do.
So beyond gathering for picnics and praise, we're putting our resources together this summer to drill Jesus wells. Look below to find out how a Jesus well will help spread the gospel in Asia.
1. We're asking ourselves, Why has God allowed us to be born in North America rather than among the poor of Africa and Asia, and to be blessed with such material and spiritual abundance?
2. We're asking ourselves, In light of the superabundance we enjoy here, what is our responsibility to the untold millions of lost and suffering in the Two-Thirds world?
We're asking God to enlarge our HEARTS for the Least and the Lost - and to enlarge our IMPACT on the Least and the Lost this summer.
Thank you, God for allowing us to be a part of your plan for these, your precious people!
“Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal 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.
