“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: For the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. And in that day shall ye say, ‘Praise the Lord’, call upon His name, declare His doings among the people, make mention that His name is exalted.” – Isaiah 12:2-4


The gift of water transforms lives. YOU CAN STOP HUNGER, CURB DISEASE AND SAVE LIVES WITH THE SIMPLE GIFT OF WATER. In addition, water projects give us an entry point into communities where WME makes water freely available. Villagers witness the compassionate behavior of Christians and openly converse with Native Missionaries about the Lord.


Our Sri Lanka partners at one of the wells WME donors provided.


Here is a prime example: Sri Lanka is a country that endured 25 years of savage civil war that finally ended in May 2009, but not before taking an estimated 200,000 lives. Afterward, people living in big cities saw major improvement. This was not the case for people in the rural areas of northern and eastern Sri Lanka. Their villages were decimated by the war. The government established post-war resettlement villages, which until recently were all but cut off from the rest of Sri Lanka. A lack of readily available water and persistent drought have made getting water a constant problem for these people.


But there is a solution. Our WME
