St. John's Resumes Hiker Water Ministry

Jesus said, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me."

On Sunday, May 2nd, The Rev. Georgia DuBose (along with her congregation) blessed the opening of the Water Ministry for 2010. The ministry welcomes hikers of the Appalachian Trail to quench their thirst with a cup of cold water.

The water station is situated under a beautiful shade tree where hikers are encouraged to rest and replenish.


Quotes from our 2009 hikers:

  • July 8: Felix from Germany: Be blessed!
  • July 9: "Whistler" from Boston, MA: Thank you so graciously
  • July 11: "Singing Wind" from New Zealand: Many thanks, and a smile.
  • July 19: "Sharkey": While I typically don't sign church registers--the water says more than words could ever hope
  • July 22: Thomas Hill, an Episcopalian: Great idea, and truly Christian. I will pray for your church
