A Walk for Water

48 hearty members from The Worship Place, an interdenominational church in Sun City, Texas toted buckets of water last Saturday morning during their “Walk for Water” fundraiser.   During Walk for Water, participants made a 1.4 mile round trip walk from the church to Sun City’s pond, where they gathered water in their buckets and returned to the church.  Among the walkers was 82-year-old Bill Harrah, carrying a bucket that belonged to his father, born in 1888.    The walk’s goal was to raise funds to  help dig a water well in a remote town in Nicaragua, where clean water is not easy to come by.   13 members from the church will join others from Living Water International next month to dig the well.   Dr. Kelly Barnett, Associate Pastor at The Worship Place, was happy to report the group raised over $10,000 for their efforts.   The photos accompany a  Williamson County Sun story by Joyce May.
