Living Water International

Will you journey with us?

We invite you to take a journey with us over the next three years. Will you commit to taking one action in each of the three engagement platforms described below?

We will help you customize a plan that fits with your church’s unique needs as a leader. Through this partnership, by co-laboring with Living Water to solve the global water crisis, we will build a powerful testimony of unity, action, and compassion for a thirsty world.

Grow In Knowledge

Living Water offers resources to help church members expand their insight and understanding of how the church is actively solving the water crisis while sharing the gospel. Through these resources, individuals can develop a love of mercy and justice as well as a heart for seeing God’s Kingdom transformation on the earth.
  • Receive information packets featuring facts and videos on the global water crisis to share with others
    • Our staff can provide information and suggested videos that you can share with your congregation to begin their learning journey. For instance, did you know that $260 billion is lost each year due to inadequate water supply and sanitation?
  • Discover more about our shared work through participation in Connection, a multi-media experience designed to deepen your knowledge
    • Each month, we alert you by email that a new Connection is available. You will better understand the global water crisis through real people, real stories, and real experiences from the work that Living Water International does around the globe.
  • Utilize Thirsting for Living Water, a new book by our president and CEO Mike Mantel, to discover your own story of God’s faithfulness
    • When we uncover and share stories of God’s faithfulness in our lives, faith grows and is strengthened. This book and the companion guide will help you see and share God’s redemption story.

Expand Your Experience

Experiencing God in action deepens faith and helps grow discipleship opportunities for all. Through Living Water, congregations can participate in the global body of Christ in ways that give tangible expression to the gospel and help believers grow in faith.

  • Transform your Christmas season with church participation in the heartwarming Advent Conspiracy initiative
    • Advent Conspiracy was founded on the idea that we can worship fully, spend less, give more, and love all during the Advent season. Celebrate the birth of Christ as it was meant to be.
  • Launch the inspiring 10 Days program where the young and young of heart give up all drinks except water for 10 days to raise awareness and resources in support of the global water crisis
    • The young and young of heart can choose to give up all drinks except water for 10 days as an act of solidarity that raises awareness and resources in support of the global water crisis. 
  • Expand your faith and connect with believers around the world through Living Water Trips for individuals or teams
    • Take your church group on a Living Water Trip to one of the many areas where we are currently working. Come alongside those communities, serve together with our staff, and put your faith into action with others as you contribute directly to the work of bringing water for life, in Jesus’ name.
  • Share our resources with young children in your Sunday schools and Vacation Bible Schools including an age-appropriate curriculum and coloring book
    • Lead your elementary program through “Expedition: Water,” our Vacation Bible School curricula with Leader’s Guide and resource kit.
  • Field a Team Living Water group to walk, run, climb, or bike for water
    • Lead a team of those who are willing to endure so that others don’t have to, and benefit Living Water International projects at the same time. There are countless ways to turn your energy into water for the thirsty!

Invest for Impact

Christ tells us whenever you care for the least of these, you care for him. To make this work possible, the global body of Christ needs the financial investment of those who have been blessed with surplus resources. Whether you can give a small monthly gift, sponsor a water project, or enable an entire WASH Program Area, you’ll know your financial contribution is making a significant impact by proclaiming the gospel in word and deed.

  • Sponsor a church-supported water project in a specific community
    • Invest in a specific project as part of the work done in communities around the world.
  • Support several water projects and churches within a specific community
    • For greater impact, invest in multiple projects!
  • Journey with multiple communities throughout a WASH Program Area over an extended time period
    • Commit to a multi-year investment over the extended time period we spend in designated WASH Program Areas and see full community transformation take place over time!
  • Support ongoing work of transformation and impact where it’s most needed and timely
    • Commit to our “Every Drop” monthly giving program and rally your church members around the difference they can make working together in unity over time!

Why Partner with Living Water?

Our donor churches say they select Living Water as a missions partner for many reasons. Most often, we hear four explanations:

Fulfilling the Great Commission:

Partnering with other churches through Living Water extends the church’s ability to “go and make disciples” at home and around the world.

Living Out the Great Commandment:

Living Water helps the church to “love your neighbor as yourself” by meeting physical needs.

Helping the Church be Relevant & Engaged:

Pastors tell us that when church members get involved with meeting real needs through Living Water's support and encouragement, they come alive as they experience the relevance and unity of the Church.

It’s Easy:

Missions pastors appreciate our turnkey solutions for service trips and activities that help congregants expand their experience and grow in knowledge.
