| Partners in Ministry! |
 This is the theme and the logo for the 2016 conference for operators of our water systems in the Yucatan Network of Living Waters for the World - the network that YOU helped to create and support. On March 4 & 5, operators of our 60 water purification plants across the peninsula will gather for continuing education, fellowship, and sharing of best practices. This is the 11th annual conference, each one a bit better than the last! This time together helps to strengthen the sustainability of our water systems, some of which have been providing clean water continuously for nearly 12 years - that's millions of gallons of clean water! Please pray for this conference, for those who will attend, and for God's guidance as we continue to make clean water available for God's people in the Yucatan peninsula. (Note: the leftmost water drop contains the logo of our non-profit partner there, created by Mexican Presbyterians to facilitate this partnership. This is the first time these two logos have been combined as one!) |
