What would your story be if God called <i>you</i> to a way of life that uses it <i>all</i> to further His Kingdom?
 
In one story, WaterStone has worked with an Ohio couple for seven years; he, a dentist and she, a nurse and teacher. Their vision has been to provide dental care and health education to third-world countries.
 
<i>Question:</i> What would drive this everyday American couple to the far reaches of Africa? Why would WaterStone partner with them, and their many supporters, to provide administrative oversight of their “dental project?â€
 
<i>Answer:</i> The reason is summarized in the Kingdom-sized purpose of their WaterStone’s <a href="http://waterstone.org/index.php?/solutions/ministry_charity_project" title="Ministry Charity Project (MCP)">Ministry Charity Project (MCP)</a>, <i>to bring the ministry of healing through dentistry, health education, spiritual growth, encouragement to pastors and sharing of the Gospel to distressed nations.</i>
 
It is true that the latest chapter in this couple’s story has taken them to a region of Africa which is plagued by severe tensions recently described as a well-coordinated and indiscriminate deadly attack on women, children and the handicapped.

“There are many opportunities that present themselves to us,â€ the couple recently shared with the WaterStone team. “We praise God for those special times when we can help those in need of encouragement (and) direction for their lives, (to) lend a hand or simply friendship.â€
 
<i>WaterStone calls this stewardship as a way of life.</i>
