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: 500 Villages So Far in 2024!

John Hays Prayer Letter:  500 Villages So Far in 2024!God has blessed us with 500 villages so far in 2024—that’s 2½ villages a day! They have their drinking water treated for decades to come, and they have had the Living Water preached to them. There are many testimonies to come. Many salvations are being reported, along with new church plants.

Work is performed by our teams, national pastors, and missionaries. This is ongoing in these 14 countries: Solomon Islands, Pakistan, Brazil, Peru, Kenya, Congo, Burkina Faso, Liberia, Nigeria, Zambia, Guam, Morocco, Philippines, and Ghana.

A Few Testimonies from Around the World

The first comes from Liberia. A man had typhoid, which is a waterborne disease. It is worse than having the flu and is often terminal. Hospitals have nothing to treat it. The man heard about the Pure Water treatment machine and went to the Baptist church in Saclepea, Nimba County, Liberia. He drank treated water and got healed. The pastor of the church presented the Gospel to him and his wife, and they both got saved. Currently, they both are members of the Baptist church and are serving in that church.

I wanted to relay another story about the impact your donations are making. There was a mountain village near Monterrey, Mexico, whose source of water was very dirty, as you can see in the picture below. One of our team members was collecting water to purify it. The village not only got a treatment system, the Khlor Gen 3000 that should last for decades, they also got the Living Water of Jesus Christ, and many got saved.

This last testimony comes from the Ivory Coast. There was a young boy who was very ill. His belly was full of worms from the very water he was drinking. His father took him to the doctors. The doctors could not treat the boy and told him to return home because he had a big belly full of worms. We were able to provide the village with a water-purification system. The boy was able to receive pure drinking water and get well, and now he will have pure water for many years to come. He and his parents were able to hear the message of the Gospel as well.

Thank you for your part in saving lives and sharing the Good News of Jesus.

His water boy,

John Hays
