Abundant Life Garden Project: Lesson One - Water
The Water Lesson of Episcopal Relief & Development’s Abundant Life Garden Project program focuses on water. Water is essential to all human, plant and animal life. One billion people on earth do not have access to clean water within a 15-minute walk of their home. Since water is an essential element of human life, good health and recovery from extreme poverty is not possible without access to clean water. This unit presents images of water from both the Old Testament and New Testament of the Bible, introduces key elements of the Baptismal Covenant to young children, and engages them in linking these stories and concepts to the urgent needs of others near their homes and around the world.
