Girls walking in Rwanda

The gift of safe water

“And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” Matthew 10:42 ESV

 

In a country where one in four people lack access to safe water, these children in Rwanda are celebrating the fact they have clean water thanks to a RESPOND Initiative.

“The children are very grateful for this intervention. [They] are very happy to have clean water. And they can use it in many different ways. We have water filters, so they can drink water freely.”

 

 

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of safe water for this community. Today we pray for all those who are still lack access to safe water and ask for your protection over them.
