Liquid Hope is a project Launched by Chicago First Church of the Nazarene (http://www.chicagofirstnaz.org/) with the intent of being a small part of the solution for the Global Water Crisis. We are selling 10,000 bottles of water for $50 per case or they can purchased individually from the Clay Cup in atrium of the church for $2.00. The goal of the project is to raise $15,000 that would be applied to supplying safe, clean drinking water to some the 1.1 billion people on Earth who currently do not have access to it. If the project is successful each bottle sold will represent one person who will have water for the rest of their life.
The project is also a part of a nation wide movement of churches called Advent Conspiracy. During the Christmas season AC is challenging people to WORSHIP FULLY, SPEND LESS, GIVE MORE and LOVE ALL. You can learn more about AC at their web site in the video below or by visiting their web site at http://www.adventconspiracy.com/ .
The projected was initiated and is being led by one of the churches youth pastor's Tim Britton. For more information about liquid hope you can email him at tbritton@chicagofirstnaz.org . For more information about EDGE Student Ministry please visit www.nazegdge.com .

We're excited about what God has placed on your heart & the vision you're passing on to the Church.
Robin's been emailing people and telling them about it.
It's a humbling thing to think that I can go to the sink and get a cool glass of safe drinking water anytime I need it why so many suffer.
Liquid Hope - this is a goal that is achievable and to think that 10 Billion dollars could solve the World's water crisis.
God Bless!

I know! Its kind of scary to think about how much we take for granted. I know it would be very hard for me to live without half the things some people don't have. Like a vehicle I can drive, heat, air, fresh water, 3 meals a day (and snacks...) It IS very humbling.
