2. Wichita, Kansas: LivingWater Outreach
Mission: LivingWater would exist to bring about spiritual transformation in the Delano neighborhood near downtown Wichita. The RiverWalk Church of Christ is committed to helping people experience this transformation as we demonstrate the boundless love of God through words and actions. LivingWater is an extension of this vision, targeting this specific neighborhood of Wichita, Kansas.
Just as Jesus invited people to experience living water (John 4 and John 7), we want to help carry this live-giving resource into the Delano neighborhood. Our goal is to look for ways to open the spigots of this living water through increased community involvement and a network of house churches in the Delano and downtown neighborhoods. We want the flow of living water to bring renewal and change into people’s lives. We want men, women, and children to come face-to-face with the hope offered by the life-giving stream
Riverwalk is looking for individuals or a couple who would prayerfully consider dedicating themselves to this ministry. While Riverwalk is already highly involved in this community it is imperative that the church send someone into the community to live and to form a new community of believers. The church can no longer invite people to come to join the church, the church must go to them. Riverwalk has spent a good deal of time praying for direction, resources and individuals that can make this happen. We believe now is the time to follow God’s direction in this matter.
