Chapin Living Waters

My volunteer work with Chapin Living Waters.


– Present 
Working with Chapin Living Waters (www.chapinlivingwaters.org) as a volunteer, as Webmaster of their website and using social media, such as Twitter and blogs to maximize impact of their technology and expertise around the world.

Chapin Living Waters exists to help poor people in third world countries grow vegetables when there is insufficient rain. We offer simple, sustainable technologies for subsistence farming, bringing hope to the poorest people and the opportunity to solve their own problems.

Help For All People. Chapin Living Waters was founded as a means to express Christian love to needy people in third world nations through small-scale drip irrigation technology. While much of our effort is directed toward missionaries working among these suffering peoples, Chapin Living Waters stands ready to assist any group, regardless of race, color, or creed. With 1.1 billion people going to bed hungry tonight, we are dedicated to working in partnership with as many organizations as possible.

Have represented Chapin Living Waters (Speaking & or booth setup) at various conferences such as: ECHO (Educational Concerns for Hunger Organization) Partners Worldwide, Agri Expo  in Tulare California and Food Security Conference in Kansas City.

Goal of helping families grow enough food for themselves and some extra to sell when there is insufficient rain and to “scale” initial pilot projects & technology into larger projects!

The Joy of the Lord: July 28th

"Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and wary
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles,
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40;28-31

Thoughts for the day. July 22

 Prayer: Ability to see with the eyes of God, think with the mind of Christ and walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.

"Without faith it is impossible  to please God because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exist and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Hebrews 11:6 

"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God who gives to all liberally and without reproach and it will be given him." James 1:5

"Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know  a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great as a knowing fool But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom." Charles Haddon Spurgeon.

"God sees everything at once and knows what you are called to do. Our part is not to play God but to trust God-to believe that our single, solitary life can make a difference." Zig Ziglar

"The Lord chooses unexceptional people like Peter and you and me to build His kingdom. He asks His followers to love Him above all else and fully commit to obeying Him. When we do, He will accomplish more through us than we could ever imagine."  http://www.intouch.org/magazine/content.aspx?topic=Peter_An_Ordinary_Person_devotional2

You can lose everything in this world, but not Jesus, because he said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
