Cup of Cold Water Ministries Cup of Cold Water is an inter-denominational cross-cultural sending board. Currently, we have 60 full-time Ministry Workers serving in 17 nations. Both!

We aim to serve ministry workers around the world, helping them to go where God has called them to serve. Cup of Cold Water Ministries was birthed in 1978 by two missionaries who had a desire to reach the poor and suffering. The project they created in order to accomplish this was not accepted by their mission sending organization. The organization felt the Kittelsons should funnel their energy elsewhere. The Kittelson's believed their work to aid impoverished farmers in Bolivia was indeed vital, so they pressed forward, starting their own non-profit to fund the project, calling it Cup of Cold Water Ministries or CCWM. The project itself was short-lived. However, the creation of Cup of Cold Water Ministries was the endeavor that would end up with lasting results. Today, CCWM is thrilled to help twenty-seven missionaries around the globe to GO, where God has called them to serve. We still stand by Odell Kittelson's original founding passion ~
"Proclamation or demonstration? Telling the Gospel or Living the Gospel? Evangelism or Social Action? They go together. They cannot be separated. Both"
~Odell Kittelson Founder of CCWM

"If anyone gives a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple, I tell you the truth he will certainly not lose his reward." —Matthew 10:42
