'Sacred Experiences' in Guatemala and Mali

The Living Water Project helped in the planning, design, funding and construction of a new drinking water system for the community of Los Limones, Guatemala. We were honored to work with our incredible partners at Lipscomb University's Peugeot Center and with Adicay, a nonprofit organization focused on the economic development of Guatemala's rural communities. Look out for future posts to learn more about this wide-ranging—and life-saving—project.

In September, Board members Jon Lee and Kevin Colvett visited four villages in Mali where the Living Water Project has funded wells. Each village—Soukoun, Sanou and Kamale—greeted them with a celebration, ceremony and even traditional tribal dancing. "It's a blessing to have these sacred experiences," Jon says.

We recently received the following letter from our partner in Mali:

“We do appreciate your efforts for both the  past and the present wells approved for this nation. We believe that it won't be only for the sake of clean water, but to also save as a living water to flow in their lives. We are grateful my brother. A big thanks to the entire leadership team.”

Blessings,
Augustine Kawa
