“If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink."—John 7:37
Most of us take for granted the water which flows freely from our taps. But for many villages in South Asia, this basic life necessity is often in short supply. Thanks to the support of many, Jesus Wells are giving people in Asia clean water and rescuing people from disease, poverty and death. Not only that, but people who are typically overlooked by society are discovering the love of Christ, and new fellowships are being started.

The blessing of clean water
Pure, refreshing water from a Jesus Well in their village saves families from walking hours a day to collect water. The clean water also keeps children from getting deathly sick from drinking polluted water from stagnant ponds or old, rusty wells.

Jesus Wells benefit entire communities
Jesus Wells are open to everyone in need of clean water. Sometimes, Christians are banned from collecting water from their village wells because of their faith. But when a Jesus Well is drilled, the whole community is benefited, because anyone, including Christians, can come draw as much water as they need.
