Summary: This five-day VBS curriculum for children in grades K-5, with a special section for pre-school inclusion, is designed to teach children about water and about our responsibility for the goodness of creation and for the care of the physical health of others, to enable participants to understand how children in other countries live, and how people in other countries deal with limited access to clean water, and to learn what Living Waters for the World and others are doing to address the lack of availability of clean water. Each day's lesson includes an opening time which focuses on a different country, a Bible story, a mission story, activities and crafts, recreation and snacks, music, reflection, and a closing time. Resources include a CD with all the music for the sessions and a flash drive containing the entire VBS in electronic form, as well as several powerpoints with photos and maps for enhancement.

Living Waters for the World, the mission project of the Synod of Living Waters, Presbyterian Church (USA), trains and equips mission teams to share the gift of clean, sustainable water with communities in need.
