Cross to Light Water Project

Cross to Light helps provide clean drinking water for 11 church community centers in Haiti.  Our Clean Water program includes equipping the church community center with sustainable water solutions.

Water solutions we help install include;

  • drilling water wells
  • well solar pumps
  • roof rainwater drainage and collection systems
  • construction of large water storage cisterns
  • large sand filtration systems
  • water truck delivery

Clean water in Haiti is vital to reducing disease, improving health, and reducing the early death rate that is often due to being unable to get clean drinking water for disease prevention and during illness.

[symple_highlight color=”green”] Joshua 15:18-19 So she alighted from the donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?” Then she said, “Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water.” So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

The Lord did a total miracle recently at the Missionary Training Center campus which is under development. We had our water team out to drill our second well. They had two weeks to complete the task. All of the neighbors around the campus have brackish water; water with enough nitrate salts in it to render it undrinkable unless it is filtered. We kept praying over the well. The first attempt was unfruitful. The drill location was moved. Coming to the end of the two weeks and the end of the drill length capacity the drilling was stopped to see what kind of water was accessed. With bated breath everyone was praying for water. It was confirmed; the well had hit an aquifer. It wasn’t until after the mud was cleared after that the the second miracle was discovered; the water was nitrate free – clean drinking water. This is very difficult to obtain on an island. The well has to hit a special kind of aquifer that acts like a natural cistern that collects rain water. Otherwise, all of the well water from an island will have some level of nitrate salts and be brackish. The fact that the Lord provided this natural, clean rain water well is a miracle – thank you Lord!
