Our Core Values

We are Christian.

  • Lifewater International's motives, methodologies, and measures of success are shaped by its Christian identity.

 

We believe in the inherent dignity and worth of all people. 

  • Understanding that all people are created in God’s image and endowed with God-given gifts, Lifewater strives to treat all people with dignity and respect.

 

We are committed to the poor through holistic ministry.

  • Believing that the gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to bring wholeness to all aspects of life--spiritual, physical, emotional, and social--we work alongside the poor to understand and respond to the complex, systemic causes of poverty.

 

We practice partnership. 

  • Recognizing that we cannot alleviate poverty alone, we work in partnership to bring about lasting improvements to people’s health and well-being. We believe that partnership reflects the biblical call to work together in unity. 

 

We are committed to good stewardship. 

  • We recognize that our resources are entrusted to us to benefit the poor. We strive to use them wisely and maintain external accountability.
