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: These Testimonies Never Grow Old

    John Hays Prayer Letter: These Testimonies Never Grow Old“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Matthew 18:20)

    NEPAL UPDATE

    In the photo on the right, we had just done a “chlorine and household hygiene” program that included some limited water-quality testing in one village. As you know, the amount of chlorine needed to dose water varies a little from well to well, and in any given well, seasonally too; but once you get the “rhythm” of it, you don’t need to test so often. After a program break, a LOT of folks brought water from their wells to test.

    The program stirred up interest in a nearby village (see middle photo). The outcome of the regular presence of a Christian demonstrably attesting to God’s care for their health and giving testimony to the Lord Jesus, Who makes our spiritual hearts healthy when we apply the “treatment” of His sacrifice for our sins is seen in the top photo. Regular presence allows discipleship and discipleship allows evangelism. Together, they allow folks to become followers of Jesus who are then baptized, ultimately leading to church plants in village after village.

    I don’t know if there’s a church in that second village yet, but there are at least two believers, and “For where two or three are gathered together in my name . . . .” While the time between the program and the baptisms was less than a month in this case, the pastor had been actively visiting, treating water, and discipling for some months before that. I think the program excitement and the Holy Spirit’s activity/flexibility just helped folks see God’s flexibility and care for them in THEIR circumstances. Nothing is too hard for him!

    Blessings, Sir,
