When Roland Bergeron, owner of a custom home building company,
first heard that more than 800 million people in the world didn’t
have access to clean water, he was shocked. An engineer by trade,
he became even more involved in water ministry in 2002, when he
went on his first mission trip to Central America. On that trip,
his heart was so stirred that he continued to participate in
multiple trips to Central America. Still, Roland knew that God was
calling him to take more action, and in 2002 he led a group of
volunteers to found Water
of Life to provide water wells to those most in need of clean
water in this world. In 2004, Roland made the life-changing trip to
Liberia, West Africa, soon adding Sierra Leone and eventually India
to the service area. Finding his life's calling, Roland turned over
his home building company to his son's care, and Water of Life has since
spread, serving hundreds of thousands of people every year in these
three countries. It was a pleasure to spend a few minutes
with Roland to talk about Water of Life's mission and
how we can help.
