let's keep Water free

Hello - One of the coolest ladies I met this last Sunday as I helped out in the relief efforts from Venezuela's devastating earthquake was a woman named Fluvia

She was living by herself in Catia La Mar when the earthquake struck, and even though she got out of her house unscathed - she's been homeless ever since. I met her at a tent church service, and after the meeting was over I asked her if a couple friends and I could go see where she's staying.

After taking her out for lunch,

she took us to a university close by that serves as her temporary home, along with a few other thousand displaced people

In general, I like to remember my Savior through the breaking of bread every Sunday - but the tent church service we were at didn't have comunion that morning, and both of the Sundays before that I was denied taking part in the Lord's Supper because of some weird gatekeeping practice I witnessed at a few assemblies

There were some more believers that were living there in the shelter along with Fluvia, and so after praising the Lord together and sharing some testimonies and a short message - we took part in the Lord's Supper, as the family in Christ that we are

When our impromptu meeting ended - Fluvia gave us some cold water which wasn't quite as refreshing as taking part in the Lord's Supper - but it was still very nice and refreshing nonetheless

Water is so vital, and it was wonderful to see how the United States made a big effort to make sure our dear Venezuelan friends who have suffered so much could at least have clean running water to use and drink

In a spiritual sense, it is extremely important that we always make sure that Jesus - the ultimate living water - is always offered for free
