Churches Give Clean Water For Africa

On Christmas Eve and Easter, some United Methodist churches in Missouri give 100% of the offering to missions including water projects in Mozambique. Safe water is something church members are passionate about. Dollars raised in Missouri have already had a direct impact on thousands of lives in Africa with the installation of more than 100 wells since 2010. The Rev. Beth Elders’ church, Manchester United Methodist, has dug two wells and built two schools and they’ve seen the church grow as a result. “Since the school and the new well in Mabumbuza opened, worship attendance at Mabumbuza United Methodist Church has more than doubled. It’s like they’ve outgrown their chapel because people want to be involved with a church that’s involved with their community,” says Elders.
