home sweet home
We are home safe and sound and forever grateful for all your prayers for our safety, your encouragement, and donations to BTG for our thirsty world. We completed our Oklahoma Ride from the Missouri Border to the Texas Border. We met some of the nicest people, enjoyed quaint towns, peaceful farm lands, thoughtful drivers; we also experienced charging dogs, the music of a rattler, narrow roads, and pouring rain. Our faith always grows on these trips, because we alway sense God’s protective hand. He answered your prayers for our safety. To you we are forever grateful. Our goal is to raise $5,000, and at this time we have raised $4,385.
1,000 Village Event of Lifewater International
We attended the 1,000 Village Event of Lifewater (LW) International in Sacramento, CA. LW's goal is to bring clean water, sanitation, and training in hygiene to 1,000 African villages in the next 2 years. BTG was able to donate $12,000 as a match for this evening fundraiser and the money was matched over and above. For each donor that made this possible, we say thank you. Yes, you know how to LOVE WELL!

10th annual walk4water
I have come to the conclusion that we show true gratefulness by how we live our lives. The walkers at the W4W showed their gratefulness by walking to provide safe water to our thirsty world. Some of you have been giving throughout the year, local businesses have given, and when you pool all this money together, we were able to make a difference for good!
Jimmy’s Project - Larry & Sandy Leatherman: Uganda $10,000
Lifewater International - Christine Zurbach: Ethiopia $12,000
World Vision - Alan Schiffer: Zambia $12,000 (will be matched)
With the match, a total of $46,000 will provide clean water, sanitation, and training in hygiene for 1,150 Africans for life!
