John,
Mr. Le* once hated God and those who follow Him. He wanted nothing to do with Jesus. But God used a simple water filter to transform his life. Mr. Le’s family was very sick. He kept calling the local priest to cast out demons and heal them. But they still did not get well. When our local Unto team member heard about the family’s situation, she hurried to their home with a water filter. She built a relationship with the family and eventually shared the good news. Over time Mr. Le began to open up about the many difficulties his family had faced. In their Southeast Asian country, nearly 2.5 million people who live in rural areas have no choice but to drink dirty water. They do not have access to basic sanitation services or handwashing facilities either. As a result they are susceptible to illness and deadly waterborne diseases. But thanks to people like you, Mr. Le’s family received a water filter that helped relieve their physical illness. They also learned how Jesus could relieve the spiritual oppression they were experiencing. As the team continued to visit the family and share about Jesus’ healing power, Mr. Le began to change his mind about God. One morning he called and proclaimed “My whole family will accept God right now.” The team had the joy of seeing the entire family respond to the message of Jesus! Today Mr. Le’s family is healed from the illness they experienced. They no longer practice ancestor worship. They are part of the local church and are growing in their faith. Three other families in their community also responded to the message of Jesus as a result of the relationships that were formed and the hope that was shared. And it all started through the gift of a simple water filter! You can help families like this one today! It costs just $8 a person to provide a family living in a hard-to-reach area with clean water through the gift of a water filter — and to give them the opportunity to hear about Jesus for the first time.
