@Greg Pickett - Mr. Pickett, Thank you for this information. I'm thrilled with the partnership between HWI and Compassion. Just knowing that whole communities are becoming healthier as a result of having access to clean water gives me goosebumps! And I love the fact that this water is offered by the same folks who represent the One who gives us Living Water! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

@Vicki Small –
Dear Mrs. Small, Thank you so much for your question. The Compassion partnership with Healing Waters includes the DR, Guatemala, and Mexico. In the DR there are 12 HWI water purification projects co-located with Compassion Child Development Centers. In Guatemala there are six. In Mexico there is currently one, but we will be opening a second location that will serve four more Compassion sites in the summer of 2009. These 19 partner projects have provided over 20 million gallons to their communities. If you would like further information please contact me or our CEO, Ed Anderson: eanderson@healingwatersintl.org Thank you again for your interest!

It is so refreshing to read these stories about the difference God’s people can make. I especially enjoy hearing about things in DR because that is where our sponsor child lives. Thank you Compassion International!

What I would like to know, now, is how widespread this partnership is between Compassion and HWI. Is it limited (for now) to the two projects in DR, or does it extend much farther, even to other countries and regions?

I love these stories about the different ways that Compassion, in partnership with partner churches, benefits not only the children in the student centers, but whole communities!

We take water for granted here, but I can only imagine the joy the people in these communities feel when they are able to drink clean, safe water!

I wonder if Jesus visited a Healing Waters center if he would say if you drink this water you will continue to be thirsty!!!

I remember the Compassion + Healing Waters project in the DR–what a blessing from God it was to the children and the community.
