      Why is water important to discipleship?

      "For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in". (Matt 25:35)

      The fundamental reason that we started building clean water projects is that so many of the people we encounter in our ministry suffer from thirst. At first, we didn’t even envision the synergies that we’ve seen between discipleship and water ministry. Since 2010, God has used YLI to provide clean water to drink for 42 communities, all places where YLI leaders have been working to evangelize, disciple and plant churches.
