Water 4 Life

Before Water4Life Mozambique, Arnie was a successful entrepreneur, starting and building businesses in human resource/business services industries. In 2002, a mission trip to Mozambique, Africa, dramatically changed his life’s trajectory.

God began to create in him a passion for missions. Since that time, Arnie has led over 40 mission teams to Mozambique. His international experience includes leading mission teams to 13 countries. But, no matter where he was in the world, his heart and passion have always returned to Mozambique.

Avid photographer, videographer and speaker, Arnie does photoshoots on location in Mozambique, including drones, to capture footage that he uses to do fundraising. To say that he is passionate about the people of Mozambique—and providing clean, safe water to Mozambique’s impoverished people—would be an understatement.

Through these meals, annual school sponsorships, and discipleship, the prayer is that these children find the help that they need to break through the cycles of systemic poverty.

United States of America

Jacob and Kasey Thurston- Resilient Church- Vermillion, SD

Pastor Jake was on staff at his first ministry placement at Ransom Church in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, from 2016-2019. Jake always had a passion for college students, the university, and the pursuit of learning.

After a ton of prayer, discernment, and processing with mentors, it became apparent that God was calling Jake and Kasey to plant a church in Vermillion, South Dakota, home to the University of South Dakota. Through the entire journey, the concept of “resilience” stood at the core of everything: That even during the hardest season of their lives, God was still good, saw them through it all, and made them better people and followers of Jesus in the process.

Little did they know that this season of hardship would be the basis of planting Resilient Church—a community passionate about forming vibrant lives in Jesus that can withstand all the hardship life throws at them.
