La Mission Por Vida partnered with Compassion International Inc. last year, to bring clean, safe water to 1500 poverty-stricken families in El Salvador by providing one filter each. With the help of Compassion El Salvador, on September 2014, LMPV Team performed a series of 12 training sessions with 1500 families coming from all around the country, and showed them how to use and provide maintenance to their Water Filters, together with the knowledge on how to prevent water-borne diseases. Most important of all, LMPV shared Jesus Good News with the families by telling them how HE is the everlasting Living Water, who cleans our lives of sin. So as to provide sustainability to this project, LMPV also trained Tutors and Directors coming from 56 Compassion’s partnering Christian Churches, who would be in charge of reinforcing key educational messages with the trained families and help monitor and evaluate the Project’s impact.
