Long before you took your first breath here on earth, our loving Lord planned every detail of that moment to complete His perfect work in your life. Your parents, your citizenship, and initial economic status were defined in that moment, and were key in shaping your path. A beautiful example of this can be witnessed through the life of Nick Jordan with Wells of Life. Nick Jordan was born in Wexford, Ireland. He recalls walking to a water well with his Mother when he was just a young child. This truly set the stage in later years for the creation of Wells of Life, and their mission to bring clean water and hope to the villagers of Uganda.
Wells of Life holds closely to the belief that clean drinking water is a basic human right for all people. They view the lack of clean water as the taproot of poverty in the developing world. By providing water to communities within Uganda, they have witnessed measurable steps towards sustainable living, a decrease in water-borne illness, a decrease in infant mortality, and the opportunity of schooling for children, especially girls and women.
Nick Jordan recently sent us the following note depicting the life changing impact that our TBG partners have had on Wells of Life, and the beautiful people of Uganda:
"
One of the things that we hold as a 'gold standard' at Wells of Life is the level of gratitude that we share with the many donors across the country that supports the life-giving work that we do. Since meeting almost 300 TBG partners in the fall of 2017, I have been inspired by the depth of giving that has flowed from your group of Christian men and women.
I would like to extend my gratitude to the 22 people who have contributed in one way or another to our ministry. The outpouring of generosity exceeded any expectation that our Board of Directors had when we received the invitation to present to your partners. Currently, over 8,000 people are receiving water in Jesus' name daily as a result of TBG partner donations!
That said, TBG partners have provided far more than just financial donations, as their commitments extend into several different areas, and at many levels. We have added two new board members, a participant on our upcoming trip to Uganda, a legacy donor, and there seems to be an outpouring that I'm sure will continue for many years to come.
My wife, Michelle, and I look forward to being TBG partners for many more years to come. We so appreciate the many opportunities to come alongside various ministries in the name of Jesus."
