Dying of Thirst...

Water has become my drink of choice lately. I grew up gulping all the soda I could get my hands on, but recently, I gave up the bubbly for plain old water......clean and in seemingly endless supply. It recently occurred to me that water, like so many other things, is something that I take for granted - I think most Americans do?! When you have never done without, it is hard to imagine there are many who do!

At this years Jubilee Conference (put on by the CCO - Coalition for Christian Outreach) held in Pittsburgh, PA, an organization was present that gave me a reality check when it comes to water (and clean blood).........Blood:Water Mission is an AWESOME organization based in Nashville, TN (started by the band Jars of Clay) to address the HIV/AIDS crisis in Africa by providing clean blood: Freedom from HIV and clean water: The foundation for health.........

Check out their site, listed herein, and be part of the solution.........check out their The 1000 Wells Project at www.1000Wells.com .............$1 will save a life...........$1.........it doesn't take much coin to change lives (get it?)..............Be the solution.............Give life!
