Agua Viva is an opportunity for the body of Christ to work together and provide clean drinking water to men, women, and children who live in extreme poverty. We pray and believe lives will be changed as the love of Jesus Christ is revealed through meeting their physical need.

As followers of Christ we are called to help those who cannot help themselves. "Jesus said, 'Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me'" Matthew 25:40

Supporting Agua Viva is an opportunity to put our faith into action, to be a voice for those who can't speak up, and to go out into the world to show the love of Christ. You can make a difference and provide hope for the lives of widows, orphans, and those less fortunate people in countries who have little to no hope themselves.

Our prayer is that by meeting a physical need, we will be able to share the gospel and point people to the one true Savior. Join us as we seek to provide clean water for those in need in the name of Jesus Christ. For God's namesake and His Glory!

If you would like to get involved or if you would like to schedule someone to come and speak at your church/event to learn how you can join others in this project, please email Josh at andrewsfam@charter.net
"...but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” John 4:14

A New Well in Uganda

One well at a time lives are being changed and people are seeing more hope in their future. We are thankful to announce the location of our third well...a small village in Uganda!



Kakoni is a village located in the Luweero district of Uganda. It is one of many small villages across Uganda that have only polluted-water sources to offer its people. Those living here struggle under extreme poverty and frequent illness, which is due largely to the lack of proper sanitation and hygiene available to them. This new well will serve to end the cycle of hardship and give hope to the people in Kakoni. No longer will villagers have to drink from contaminated water sources.

Although we estimate it will take several months for this well to be functional, using local leaders and resources, God is already at work providing hope and dignity to the people in the Kakoni village. We will post updates and pictures of the project as they become available. 

Along with this exciting news, we also want to announce that we have currently raised $5,058 towards our fourth well.  Thank you for your partnership and support as we diligently seek ways to serve others in need. If you have fund raising ideas or are able to release God's resources towards this project, please contact us at the links provided on this site.

Scripture tells us that God dwells on a high and holy place, and also with the contrite and lowly of spirit. He does this so He can revive the spirit of the lowly and the heart of the contrite (Isaiah 57:15). God is the one at work changing lives but He is asking us to choose obedience and join Him in this amazing process of providing hope to people around the world.

Thank You!
