We are excited to invite you to Lifewater’s third annual No-Show New Year’s Eve Party! Avoid the hassle of staying out late and instead enjoy wrapping up the year with a gift to those who lack safe water.

Each year, Lifewater provides you with reasons to stay home on New Year’s Eve and donate your money to Lifewater instead. Here are a few from previous years:
You can start your New Year’s resolutions early and hit the gym at midnight.
We all know the ball is going to drop. Skip the suspense and get a good night’s sleep.
If you stay home, there is absolutely no chance of being kissed at midnight by someone you don’t know.

If you think these reasons for not attending are compelling, just wait until you see this year’s! To make the celebration economical, this year’s invitation will arrive in your email inbox rather than by post. If you are not on our email list but would like to receive the 2008 No-Show New Year’s Eve invitation, please send a note to info@lifewater.org. We look forward to not seeing you there!

The Easter season begins with Lent on February 25, 2009. Lifewater invites you to take a few easy steps before Christmas to make the upcoming Easter celebration meaningful and memorable for you, your family, and your church or small group.  

Over the past several years, Lifewater has helped bring significance to the season through Significant Sacrifice: An Easter Journey. This activity encourages individuals and groups to commit to weekly reflection time and small personal sacrifices as a way to remember Christ’s sacrifice and those who suffer every day.

Each year Lifewater publishes a Significant Sacrifice Lent and Easter devotional guide, free upon request, that contains weekly readings, reflection questions, and prayers. Lifewater also offers Significant Sacrifice DVDs, bulletin inserts, and posters.

If you and/or your family, small group, or church would like to participate in Significant Sacrifice: An Easter Journey, please sign up for materials as soon as possible by sending an email to info@lifewater.org or by calling toll-free at 888-543-3426.
