Water Purification with Berkey Water Filters and Biosand Water Filters

Please visit the

Water Ministry Resource Directory website.

I am listing two different options for water purification. These are good choices if you are a missionary and need clean water in a country without purified water. I think both options run without electricity. It is also a good option if you want to give the gift of clean water to someone who lives in a place without purified water. Below are two options on water purification. They are the Berkey water filters and the Biosand water filters.
