What is the 52 Water Purifier Vision?

When Jesus walked the shores of Galilee, he had a mission, to save the world. One day when he was teaching the hungry crowds he had compassion on them. So he fed them with five loaves and two fish. He proceeded to tell them the Good News, that he was going to conquer sin’s control over their physical and eternal lives with Love. He did just that.

He took care of their physical needs and then their eternal needs. That’s what we want to do with the water purifiers. If you give somebody clean water they are better off for short time, and that is good. If you give them eternal water they are better off for all of eternity. Through the Water Purifier Discipleship Program they get both.

As you probably know, the 52 concept is starting with the little that we have and watching God multiply it in his hands. We are looking for that kind of 52 results with the resources he has given us. Some ministries give water purifiers to a person or a family. That is addition. We are looking for multiplication both physically and spiritually.

Jesus himself told us to be his hands and feet to hurting world and to make disciples that will do the same. Since Jesus built disciples in small relational environments so should we. This gives those relational environments (Home Groups) a platform to flourish and an opportunity to serve those around them.

What does it do back home? This gives businesses an opportunity to invest in something that changes lives by their giving. What if people could patronize your business and know they were also helping the hurting in significant ways. This also gives our home groups an opportunity to walk out serving with each other and teaching our children as we go. What if the spare change or the lemonade stand raised $50 and provided 50-100 people with clean water for life and your children did that.

That, my friend, is a 52 reward.
