World Water Day – March 22
Over 1 billion people in the world lack sustainable access to fresh water. Water is a vital ingredient for life. It is a gift from God for all creation and should be viewed as such a gift, not a commodity for profitable gain. As responsible stewards of God’s gifts, we need to help protect the gift of water by going beyond verbal expressions of concern – we must act.
