Living Waters for the World is the global mission resource of the Synod of Living Waters (Presbyterian Church USA). 

Our Mission: Living Waters for the World is a Christian ministry that provides sustainable clean water, fostering long-term, mutually beneficial, relationships between volunteers and communities in need.

We welcome churches of all denominations and civic organizations to participate with us in this life-changing work.

Our Focus:
  • Train mission team leaders in:
       - partnership development, project administration and system      sustainability evaluation and assurance
       - health, hygiene and spiritual education
       - LWW clean water system installation, operation and
         maintenance

  • Equip our partners with materials and supplies at cost

  • Sustain the operation of LWW clean water systems by building and supporting relationships with and between our partners through multi-year covenants and in-country network services

    • Our Core Values:
  • Relationship Oriented – first and foremost, we work in relationship with Initiating Partners (IP), with Operating Partners (OP) and the communities they serve

  • Operating Partner Focused – the OP’s interest and objectives are primary

  • Empowerment Oriented – the process of training, equipping and sustaining our IPs and OPs is designed to encourage, establish and reinforce independence

  • Volunteer Led – volunteers make LWW viable, providing the financial and human resources necessary to sustain its mission

  • Mission Focused - LWW exists to provide clean safe water to those in the world who desperately need it and to support the volunteers and communities with whom we have relationships

  • Network Focused –  through mutually supportive networks among IPs and OPs, we increase our collective capacity to provide and sustain clean water systems

    • "How does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help?

    Little children, let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action."

    1 John 3:17-18
