Living Waters for the World (LWW), the mission resource of the Synod of Living Waters of the Presbyterian Church (USA), trains and equips mission teams to share the gift of clean water with communities in need. LWW water systems and related educational programs address a critical niche of the world water crisis - communities with available but contaminated water.
In the fall of 2007, First Presbyterian Church commission and sent 8 members to Clean Water U (the training program for Living Waters for the World) to be trained as community leaders in site survey and covenant negotiation, education and installation and training. Empowered to build a mutually empowering relationship with our "operating partners" First entered into a covenant with Nuevo Jerusalem Church (Betania, Mexico) in 2008.
Since then, our congregation has become more than aware of the need for clean water here in Kentucky. Wanting to support and empower those without clean water in our own Presbytery, First Church initiated a partnership with a community in Pike County in 2009 to install cleaning systems in homes with water contaminated by the effects of mining.
As the Spirit continues to move us in response to the needs of the world, we invite you to participate in this powerful ministry. Please click on these opportunities to learn more:
