JOHN HAYS

SERVING WITH HAYS PURE WATER

ABOUT

John Birthday 12/06

I grew up in church. I do not remember ever hearing the Gospel. It was in college that I was asked what the Cross of Jesus meant to me. I did not know.  I studied the Bible and realized He loved me and died for my sins. I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Saviour on September 21, 1974. I was baptized shortly after in the university swimming pool. I am now a member of and sent out of Marion Avenue Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Joseph Brown.

Farming was my god, but I followed Christ’s calling to enter public water treatment for three decades, starting in 1980 till 2010. He placed on my heart the need to invent and distribute a water-treatment system in 2004. I believe these Scriptures for my ministry:  Matthew 25:35 and John 4.  I serve Jesus in each thirsty person and witness to offer living water. I am in my second decade of this ministry. God has let me manufacture 5,000 systems and distribute them in 50 countries. In Sudan, Africa, for example, 1,200 villages were given both waters.  More information and testimonies can be found at Hays Pure Water.

I began working in the ministry in 2005 and have seen many in 50 countries in 5,000 villages saved, grow in Christ, and become fruitful soul winners. My burden is to reach more around the world with both drinking and living water and to train them to become effective and fruitful soul winners. I have developed and manufacture a water machine that perfectly treats water for up to 5,000 people for several decades.

My desire is to work with the missionaries of Fundamental Baptist Missions International and assist them in planting churches. I want to see people saved and then train them to become soul winners. In addition, I have a strong burden to reach their entire village for Christ. This will be most effective through the water ministry-serving missionaries.

This will take much labor and sacrifice. I am ready to reach more of the world. I invite you to pray and consider partnering with me in this effort through your prayers and finances. Please contact me if you would allow me to share my burden and calling with you and your church.

If I can serve you in any way, please allow me to do so.

In 2006, after traveling around developing nations on missions trips, John Hays was burdened to create a low cost, portable solution for water purification. After reading the historical account of Elisha cleansing the water of Jericho in II Kings 2, John put his 30+ years of experience with municipal water works to use and developed the Khlor Gen system.

Through the years, the design and look has been changed and improved, but the mission has stayed the same. Provide people with clean water, reaching out to them through word and deed. Eight years and 4,000 units later, that mission continues full steam ahead.

  • John Hays Prayer Letter: Prayer Makes a Difference“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door; pray to the Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” (Matthew 6:6)

    Please join me in praying. My prayers are in my closet. My prayers are to my Father. My prayers are secret. My Father sees my prayers, and my prayers are rewarded. My Father is rewarding me openly. He gives drinking water, hope, joy, purpose, peace, and joy to those who are asking Him for drinking water. I cannot find them. I cannot share my intense, heart-stopping, tear-filled prayers, but I can share with you the rewards He is showing openly.

    There were 1,800 Klor-Gen water-treatment systems distributed in 2024, mostly to villages, which is about 5 a day. Church plants were started, numerous people saw health improvements, many Gospel presentations were given, and many salvation decisions were made, all showing God’s answered prayer. Below are a few firsthand testimonies from Sierra Leone, Togo, Benin, and Pakistan:

    Update on 2024 Distribution of Chlorine Generators in Three West African Countries

    Sierra Leone Update:

    I was able to distribute 17 chlorine-generator units to 5 churches through Pastor Solomon Gorive and Pastor David Brooks, our graduate. The chlorine units make it very easy to win people to Christ, especially Muslims, because most people have health problems. They were able to win 371 people to Christ, and 312 of those got baptized and are part of their various churches. Many got some physical healing from many types of waterborne diseases. Four powerful new preaching points have also been established. I’m praying for God to provide more machines for them.

    Togo Update:

    From Pastor Dominic: “There are 57 Baptist churches in Togo that have benefited from the chlorine-generator units. The data from the 57 churches for the souls won for Jesus Christ in 2024 is about 1,531 souls, of which 1,369 people are now members of these churches. About 367 are from Muslim backgrounds. Praise God for this, Bro. Hays!”

    They also have 31 active evangelists who have been preaching every Sunday. Continue to pray for God to provide us with more machines.

    Benin Update:

    We have 37 churches that have benefited from chlorine-generator units in 2024. The total number of souls won to Jesus Christ was 1,671. There were 743 people who were baptized and joined these churches. We were unable to count the number of people who received physical healing from different types of diseases. According to Pastor Dominic, who helps me in ministering to the French-speaking country, has helped me to organize these reports from Togo and Benin.

    Pioneer Basic Academy (PBA) Ministry – Kumasi, Ghana

    Using the chlorine water in my orphanage has been a very big blessing for the kids. There has been no malaria, no fevers, or rashes that cause me to have to spend money in the hospital. So, I am thankful for this wonderful opportunity.

    Pakistan Blessings

    • We distributed 25 systems.
    • We saw 170 accept the Lord Jesus Christ.
    • We baptized 30 new converts.
    • We saw 4 new churches planted.

    Hallelujah! Please pray for more lost souls to get saved.

    I am 100 percent broken, consumed, and burdened beyond words for the lost, poor, and needy people around the world. Pray for more doors to open so that we can give the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ any place at any time at any cost.

    His water boy,
