2 ShareJOY well built in Cambodia 2016

3 THE RUN Do you desire to make a difference in people s lives? Many do, and most recognize that in helping others they too are blessed. In fact, Jesus said in Acts 20:35 It is more blessed to give than to receive. The ShareJOY Run is an opportunity for both to help others and to be encouraged yourself. It s a 5K run and 1-mile walk to help raise funds to build freshwater wells in third world countries. The ShareJOY Team recognizes that TOGETHER EVERYONE ACHIEVES MORE. One person certainly can make a difference, but thousands of people working together to promote the same cause changes whole villages, communities, and families. THE CAUSE This year we have teamed up with missionaries in Honduras to build a brand new freshwater well for HOPE of Honduras Children s Home: an orphanage that helps underprivileged, neglected and abandoned children. The financial goal is to raise $ 7,000 to help this tremendous ministry. Any additional funds will be given to help those directly impacted by Hurricane Florence.

4 Will you join us the Saturday morning after Thanksgiving to Share the JOY? By registering to run in the 5K or walk the 1-mile course, you ll be helping others by providing life-giving water. Not able to physically participate? No worries, you can give anytime at thesharejoyrun.org. Give once or give often. One drop of water doesn t make much of an impact, but thousands of drops can save a life, tens of thousands can transform villages. Donate today! THE JOY With your generous financial support, a new well will bring fresh, clean water to HOPE of Honduras Children s Home. WATER=LIFE For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward. Mark 9:41 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. John 4:14
