A message from Nathan:
Hey guys, this is a reminder that 40 days of water starts tomorrow! Below is the description of it from blooodwatermission.org:
"It's a big commitment to not drink anything but water for Forty days. But from March 9 to April 23, that's exactly what we're asking you to do. To be clear: we're not asking you to fast for Forty days. We're just asking you to ditch the morning coffee and o.j., leave out the lunchtime soda, and cancel the evening beverage in lieu of clean water from the tap. By sacrificing your daily routine, you will make a difference in the daily routine of a person in Africa."
Also, you might have noticed that the total number of days is actually 46. Forty Days follows the traditional Lenten season calendar which consists of 40 fast days and 6 Sabbath rest days. So essentially you get one day a week off, most people take Sunday off. How you choose to observe Forty Days is up to you. We will donate all our money together to make a difference for our family around the world.
Looking forward to doing this with you guys!
