Kwassui’s Name and Ethos
The name Kwassui means “living water.” It comes from Jesus’s conversation with the Samaritan woman
at the well, as recorded in John 4 in the New Testament.
“KWASSUI” - “LIVING WATER”
Jesus said: “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who is asking you for a drink,
you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”
John 4:10
