Living Waters for the World is
the global mission resource of the Synod of Living Waters (Presbyterian Church
USA).
Our
Mission: Living Waters for the World is a Christian ministry that provides sustainable clean water, fostering long-term, mutually beneficial, relationships between volunteers and communities in need.
We welcome churches of all denominations and civic organizations to participate with us in this life-changing work.
Our Focus:
Train mission team leaders in:
- partnership development, project administration and system sustainability evaluation and assurance
- health, hygiene
and spiritual education
- LWW clean water system installation, operation and
maintenance
Equip our partners with materials and supplies at cost
Sustain the operation of LWW clean water systems by building and supporting relationships with and between our partners through multi-year covenants and in-country network services
Our Core Values:
Relationship Oriented – first and foremost, we work in relationship with Initiating Partners (IP), with Operating Partners (OP) and the communities they serve
Operating Partner Focused – the OP’s interest and objectives are primary
Empowerment Oriented – the process of training, equipping and sustaining our IPs and OPs is designed to encourage, establish and reinforce independence
Volunteer Led – volunteers make LWW viable, providing the financial and human resources necessary to sustain its mission
Mission Focused - LWW exists to provide clean safe water to those in the world who desperately need it and to support the volunteers and communities with whom we have relationships
Network Focused – through mutually supportive networks among IPs and OPs, we increase our collective capacity to provide and sustain clean water systems
"How
does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's
goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet
refuses help?
Little children,
let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and
action."
1 John 3:17-18
