THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed to the impact of Project H2O!!
Every single card, mask, donation, text message, phone call, drive, prayer, and more has come together like the grains of sand that make the beach!! The waves are flooding our city in impact!!
As momentum rises, we’ve launched WAVE 3: 5,000 by May 23rd! Expanding from “Homeless to Hotels Opportunity” to “Hope to Others” including the homeless, domestic violence shelters, and at-risk youth!
What happened these past 10 days?!?
God moved & did what seemed impossible! 1,000 in 10 days sounded crazy. BUT… with the speedy coming together of over 24 churches across Greater Los Angeles (including YOU) there are:
1,043 handwritten cards with God’s truth
1,624 masks (554 handmade cloth, 1070 disposable - packed in pairs)
112% funded covering toothbrush, toothpaste, bar of soap, comb, and candy
WOW!! PRAISING JESUS!! Let’s pause and PRAY for those who be delivering & receiving these!!

A Few Wave 2 God Moments:
A lady who used to be homeless on skid row wrote 30 cards, sharing that she wants to give back because of how God has blessed her! A team member that knows her said, “It’s a beautiful story of how we once ministered to her and now she is paying it forward.”
Just the night before, all the supplies for 1,000 packages was ordered and paid in faith that the donations, cards, and masks would come in. That night multiple people gave and the lady from skid row gave the final amount needed to cover all the expenses from the night before!
A friend invited her neighbors to create cards over zoom together, some responded that they aren’t religious but love the idea! This opened doors for them to read, write, and talk about God’s truth for the first time!
Within 48 hours, people from 4 different churches helped assemble the 1,000 packages (by picking up a set to take home & work on) & even more offered to help!
Wave 1 continues to positively impact the culture at the 1st hotel of 100 people, watching films about Jesus, and a possible person of peace (Luke 10:1-12). Please continue to PRAY!
A Few Wave 2 Fun facts:
A person shared with a person, who shared with a person - who gathered 100 handwritten cards from their community in another county!
A friend of friends saw a Facebook post and mailed 50 handmade masks from North Carolina.
People from 5 different states donated towards Project H2O.
Friends of friends from decades ago are jumping in & mobilizing their friends to help.
Project H2O continues to multiply!!! Please jump in with us on WAVE 3! In order to reach further, we need to come together! Spread the word and be a part of seeing 5,000 people impacted with God’s love through word & deed in the next 14 days!!
