Find a Walk
Hosting a Walk4Water in Boyden, Iowa is an event our community is very excited about. A year ago, a friend of mine suggested that I get involved with Walk4Water. I brought the idea to my community in hopes of including a walk in our annual celebration. The committee graciously said yes and has set a goal to raise $7,500 to fund a well in Haiti. I’m very fortunate to live in a Godly community that wants to serve God by serving others.
Although we have treasures waiting in heaven, water is life of earth. Without it our life ceases to exist. Join us for this momentous act of charity raising funds to build a clean water well for those who walk this walk every day of their lives. Come out and walk with us in solidarity for the people of Haiti who are in desperate need of clean fresh water. We will walk two miles one way and two miles back while sharing the responsibility of carrying six gallons of water as a symbol of what our fellow men and women go through in Haiti.
Our goal for our 1st annual Walk 4 Water event hosted by Pleasant View Church of Christ, in Pleasanton Ca. is $7,500, the cost to bring one well to a village of people who desperately are in need of a clean water source . If we can surpass this goal that would be amazing! Any extra funds raised go towards building more or repairing current wells.
Join us in making a difference and changing lives one gallon and one step at a time!
It was once said that with enough faith, we can move mountains. This particular mountain has a clean water well for the people of Haiti underneath and only costs $7,500 to move. Please help us! Come out and join us as we will walk to raise awareness in our own minds for what others have to do on a daily basis and also help us be reminded of how fortunate we are to have access to clean water all around us.
Mars Hill Bible School will host a Walk4Water on Saturday August 24th at 10am. The walk will be held on Mars Hill Bible School’s campus and is a part of our summer reading program. Each high school student will be working on projects to raise money for the walk throughout the summer as they read the book “Thirst” by Scott Harrison. Please join us in this opportunity to love and serve others!
Our goal for our 1st Walk4Water event hosted by Briensburg Church of Christ, in Marshall County, Kentucky is $7,500-- the cost to bring one well to a village of people who desperately are in need of a clean water source . If we can surpass this goal that would be amazing! Any extra funds raised go towards building more or repairing current wells.
“Please, give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty.” Judges 4:19. It begins with water...many of us in the United States take such a simple resource as water for granted until a natural disaster or tragic event strikes. Imagine if you had to walk an average of 4 miles to get that water that was contaminated and killing your family at an alarming rate. This is a daily routine for many women and children around the world today.
Now imagine how life-changing it could be for these people to have access to clean water near their homes and businesses. Not only would it eliminate sickness resulting from dirty water, but it would free up much of their time to engage in other prosperous activities, like attending school and church. Briensburg congregation wants to be part of the solution to generate clean water for those in need. Won’t you help as well?
”. . . I was thirsty and you gave me drink: I was a stranger and ye took me in:” Matthew 25:35. Please join us as a community to Walk4Water, so “they don’t have to!” Registration starts at 9:00am and the walk will begin at 9:30 am, September 7, 2019. We will use the walking trail over Ky Dam—registration starting at the pavilion located by the old beach near Ky. Dam Village Inn Boat Ramp/Old Beach parking.
At Briensburg church of Christ with our partner Healing Hands International from Nashville, we believe no one should live without love or water! Much like the Samaritan woman in John 4, when these people come to draw clean drinking water, they will also have the opportunity to encounter “the living water.” As always, God does the healing, but He is using your hands (and feet) to do it. Let us not be weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9
When clean water is accessible, not only is disease reduced, but children are able to return to school and parents are able to focus on providing for their families. This is why we say, “It all begins with water.” And that water begins with you!
Please, mark your calendars and join us in making a difference and changing lives one step at a time! We walk so they don't have to. . .
Join us at Rotary Park for our 6th year of Walk4Water.
In a world where walking 4 miles roundtrip on average to obtain water, which often times is dirty, is just part of life... That can be changed with every well we drill! We can save lives and even save souls.
Together, we can make a difference. That difference starts with you.
Join us for our 4th Annual Mid Ohio Valley Walk 4 Water! Last year we had participants from all over the MOV walking 4 miles, raising awareness and funds to sponsor a clean water well in Haiti. Let's join together again for this cause and change the world one step at a time.
