Every day is a disaster, as nearly 884 million people lack access to safe water, and nearly 2.6 billion people do not have adequate sanitation.Since 2001, Water Missions International has responded to the world's largest natural disasters and daily tackles the world’s single biggest cause of illness - lack of safe water and adequate sanitation (U.N. Report, 2005) by providing safe water to more than two million people in 49 countries.
Water Missions International is a nonprofit Christian engineering ministry providing sustainable safe water solutions to people in developing countries and in the wake of disaster. We approach all of our work with a sense of urgency and a commitment to excellence. Our faith and our belief in the sanctity of life compel us to develop and implement the best technologies and community development programs so that, through our work, God will be honored and glorified and lives will be transformed.

“What if the American Church came together and said ‘We want to end this crisis?’” Water Sunday is an initiative of Water Missions International, inspiring a movement within The Church to respond to the global water crisis. Together, we can be the solution. Water Sunday is the start.
Would you give one Sunday in 2013 between January and April to partner with us? We have all the resources available to make sure your church is fully equipped for a Sunday that is as transformational and hassle-free as possible. Our desire is that the members of your church would move from being ‘transactional givers’ to passionate people who have been transformed through engaging in the call to care for the thirsty (Isaiah 58).
In the months that follow Water Sunday, we’ll celebrate together, as photos and stories of transformation pour in from the projects funded through Water Sunday. Your church community will be able to see the seeds of Hope and the impact of their efforts. Our goal is to see lives changed through the transformative power of safe water and the gospel of Jesus Christ. We can’t do this without you.
