EDGE OUTREACH

I am currently in Costa Rica on a water development trip with EDGE OUTREACH and Middletown UMC.

So, yes, this is automatically posted.

But in case you are not familiar with who EDGE OUTREACH is:

EDGE is a dynamic faith-based, non-profit organization.  We care deeply about the misery caused by the shortage of pure water in the developing world.  We are really good at training people to relieve that shortage, gallon by gallon.  But we need all the help we can get.

Here's how we do it:

1. We install compact, efficient water purification units and train local people to use them.
2. We fix broken hand pumps (though we still have more than a million to go).
3. We train local people to use proper health and hygiene practices.
4. We train people like YOU to install purifiers, fix pumps, and train others to do the same.
5. We send volunteers all over the world, including post-disaster "first responders."  

EDGE is not just any organization though.  It is composed of passionate people. Passionately devoted to our Christ and to ending injustices in the world.

We have realized that in our own brokenness we need Christ's redeeming love above all else before reaching into someone else's situation while we fix each other's broken lives.
