Gospel for Asia-Supported Pastor Brings Water the Chickens and Cows Can’t Ruin

WILLS POINT, TX — Gospel for Asia (GFA World and affiliates like Gospel for Asia Canada) founded by Dr. K.P. Yohannan — Discussing a village where ponds and open water wells are exposing them to dangerous illnesses, and the Gospel for Asia supported Pastor who brought a Jesus Well, meeting the dire needs of families.

A group of villagers huddled around a large hole, peering into the darkness. Feathers. Again. They let out a groan — not in grief over the dead chicken, although it was a loss for someone’s flock, but because it meant their well was contaminated. They gathered buckets and emptied the well late into the night. All that precious water wasted because of one little hen.

This well and a small pond had the job of providing water for this village, but they frequently failed their task. In summertime, the well and pond dried up and had to be dug deeper. When the heavy rains came, water filled the pond again, but it was accompanied by leaves, garbage and cow manure. The families in this community needed water, but using dirty water exposed them to bouts of typhoid, diarrhea and other dangerous waterborne illnesses. Something had to change — but none of them could fix their deadly problem.

This Jesus Well provides ample clean water for anyone who comes to draw water, just as the Jesus Well in Aarnav’s village does.
