Church Partnerships
Hydrating Humanity partners with churches to be a mission arm with incredible impact and eternal fruit through clean water projects that give "cups of cold water" to the least of these, saving lives and presenting the good news and love of Jesus to the "least of these."
Two Waters
💧 Natural Water: Jesus said: "For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because of your name as followers of Christ, truly I say to you, he will not lose his reward" (Mark 9:41)
And, "I (Jesus) was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink" (Matt 25:35)
💧 Living Water: Jesus also said: "Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again; but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never be thirsty; but the water that I will give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up to eternal life" (John 4:13-14)
Over 1 Million Gospel Presentations
Our work of giving natural water is the spearhead for sharing the love of God and the good news of Jesus. In many of the communities and schools where we work, the spiritual landscape is confused by all kinds of teachings, and at times, the people we serve are practicing tribal customs or another faith entirely. Some of the ways we share the Gospel include:
-
The Jesus Film screenings at schools, followed by an invitation to receive Jesus. We have dedicated staff who's role is solely to present the film and the gospel.
-
Gospel Presentations at Well Dedication Ceremonies, teaming up with local pastors. We have ceremonies when a new well is installed and the community or school gathers to celebrate.
-
Ongoing Awana Discipleship Programs for students at schools
-
Gospel tracts for kids, custom designed to fit their African identity and culture
-
Feeding Widows Program at Christmas, demonstrating God's love for the "least of these"
“We’ve always believed that the Gospel isn’t just something we preach, it’s something we live. It has to show up in real ways in people’s lives. That’s why partnering with Hydrating Humanity has meant so much to us over the years. There’s something powerful about meeting a basic need like clean water. It brings dignity, it brings relief, and it opens hearts. And when that’s paired with the message of Jesus, it becomes more than just a project, it becomes transformation.
For us, this is simply the call of the Church. To care for the least of these. To love in a way that’s practical and visible. To bring hope where it’s needed most. Every well tells a story. Lives are being changed, families are being impacted, and the Gospel is moving forward. We’re grateful to play even a small part in that.”
