Water can truly mean LIFE or it can also be DEATH!

After Haiti suffered one of the greatest tragedies in history of its last January 12th earthquake, they also experienced yet another deadly catastrophe, the cholera. Many people died through this terrible epidemic as well. But today at Mission Lifeline the Lord sent a gentleman by the name of Mike Phillips and his team with Hays Pure Water Foundation to share with us a system that is so easily used to purify contaminated water through the use of a small generator and actually make this water safe for us to drink. After being trained to use the system we now can take 2CC of this chlorinated water solution and pour it into a gallon jug of contaminated water and truly make it safe to drink. How amazing!!! God always sends "the right people with the right things" right on time. Now no one else in our village has to die of the cholera due to this very special gift. Our thanks go out to Mike and all of the people that make this Pure Water Foundation possible. We can truly make a difference one drop at a time! To God be the Glory!
That was not the only gift, as if that wasn't enough, that this team brought to us today. We also received a gift of some much needed baby formula from Formula One Life. This is a non-profit organization of flight attendants and volunteers delivering infant formula to third world countries such as Haiti. The mission is accomplished primarily by the flight attendants using their benefits to provide these vital donations to a growing number of orphanages around the world. Many times the mothers of Haiti are malnourished and cannot produce the proper natural milk necessary to nurse a baby. So today this mother of twins was able to receive a portion of this blessing of baby formula for her babies. God continues to place people with us to provide the needs for this country, one step at a time. Praise God!
