Become a Distributor of Living Water through one of our Fundraising Opportunities

We’re raising funds for some multimedia equipment. Will you help? We’ve designed several ways for you to help us raise money. This multimedia equipment will enable us to begin a podcast and livestream upcoming events so that they can be heard and viewed by people around the world. When you donate to Wellspring’s ministry, you become a distributor of Living Water while helping us expand our ministry. You are vitally needed to help us revive, renew and redeem our nation as we seek to bring revival to America. Choose one or more of the following seven options and become a distributor of the living water of Christ:

Option 2: Purchase a Christian t-shirt or other item at either our Teespring or Spreadshop Store. 

T-shirt Fundraiser Event:

In Jesus’s parable of the persistent widow, Jesus tells us to never stop praying and don’t lose heart. As we focus on Revival for America, 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, “If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins, and heal their land.” This design was created as we focus this week on praying for revival. You’ll find the design in tees for men, women, kids, and babies, mugs, bags, and other products. Check them out on in the Spreadshirtand Teesprings shops.

Option 3: Make a tax-deductible financial contribution at buymeacoffee.com.  For the price of a cup of coffee, you can help us give Living Water to those who are spiritually thirsty. Donations gifted through this site are set at $5 increments and start at only $5. If you wish to donate more that $5, just choose how many cups of virtual coffee you wish to contribute. In other words, a cup of coffee at your local barista can cost you about $5. So if you wanted to contribute $15 to this ministry, you would be contributing at the amount equivalent to 3 cups of coffee, so you’d select 3 cups of virtual coffee.
Note: No cups of coffee are actually purchased. 

January Fundraising challenge: How many cups of coffee do you drink in a day? Would you consider donating at that amount? So if you typically drink 4 cups a day, would you consider contributing at 4 cups of virtual coffee – the equivalency of $20?

Option 5: Plan and organize a “God, Love and Marshmallow Wars” couples event at your church. Book Julia to come to your church and lead the all new event that goes with the book. Learn more about the event here:

BOOKING NOW to be a host site for the NEW God, Love & Marshmallow Wars Book Tour & Couples Conference:

This event helps couples understand why the daily activities found in the book will equip them to build a stronger marriage and the book provides them with 365 intentional activities to take what they learn at the event and apply it on a daily basis. Through the event, couples will discover the Biblical “why” behind the categories of activities found in the book and the “how” these activities are important to building a stronger marriage. Focus points of the event includes :

• How memorizing scripture together and studying God’s Word together as they study, meditate and apply scriptures related to marriage and life issues will help them develop marriages that honor God.
• Why utilizing fun conversation starters that spark meaningful conversations will keep interest alive as they continually learn new things about each other.
• Why keeping romance alive is essential to intimacy and connectivity.
• How making memories and working together builds relationship investment bonds and how these investment bonds can become the knots that keeps them together through the tough times.
• How they can understand what they are or are not contributing to the marriage as well as how they might be contributing to problems or potential problems within the relationship through the use of targeted, intentional personal reflections
• Why it is important that couples never stop dating and how group dates with Christian friends can be both an encouragement and accountability to their own relationship.

During the event, couples will be given an activity from each focus point to do together, making this event an interactive, fun, and engaging event with practical, hands-on learning. Unlike other couple events that are over when the event ends, couples who attend the GLMW event will be able to apply what they learn when utilizing the book on a daily basis for a year. Since the book is not dated, couples are able to reuse the activities year after year to continue being intentional in strengthening their relationship with each other and with God as they strive to live out God’s design for marriage every day.

Julia will donate half of all proceeds for all GLMW events booked prior to December 31 to this ministry. Don’t wait. Book today.

Pray Big: Learn to Pray Like an Apostle By Alistair Begg / Good Book Company So many of us struggle with prayer. Many books have been written on the subject and there’s a reason for that. Prayer comes hard to most of us, in most seasons. And when we do pray, we often don’t know what to say. What is it that my Father loves to hear about? What are the best things I could pray for my family, my church, and myself? This short book by renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg combines warmth, clarity, humor, and practicality as he examines Paul’s prayers for his friends in the church in Ephesus. Paul clearly enjoyed prayer, and was excited about it. He expected his Father in heaven to hear what he said, and to act in other people’s lives accordingly. The truths that underpin and shape his prayers will motivate us to pray and set us an example. So be inspired by the Apostle Paul to pray bigger and better prayers as we look to our heavenly Father to do more than all we ask or imagine!
