Pray, Study, Act for the Gift of Water

Lisa Sullivan and Margaret Lacson at the UN Conference

Join us celebrating God’s gift of water! While we celebrate yesterday’s World Water Day, we also remember that around 2 billion people around the world do not have access to clean and safe drinking water.

Two representatives of Maryknoll are attending the UN Water Conference in New York and want to share these resources.

Pray

The Catholic Health Association of the United States offers this World Water Day prayer

Study

Maryknoll reflections on water and our article on a new UN report on the threats to groundwater, a critical source of fresh water for most of the world.

Act

Individuals and organizations are invited to endorse the Water Justice Manifesto. The Manifesto affirms that access to clean water is a human right and emphasizes sustainability and respect for indigenous peoples.
