Building water wells for clean drinking water to open doors to transform communities in the South Pacific.
Water4Life
Our Fa'arau Well Drilling Team is the only water well business on the entire Island of Malaita. Every water well installation provides opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ said “...if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward”
Every well we dig in the natural is having a spiritual impact and is opening up wells of salvation to entire villages!
Jesus Christ “...But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life”

Build More Water Wells
We have been training local men to develop water wells in order to supply clean drinking water to villages in need

Establish Houses of Prayer
We provide musical instruments, sound equipment and provide training.

Do works of justice
We have been meeting the practicals needs of the people in the Solomon Islands, setting up orphanages, and establishing medical centers.

Teach the Word of God
We want to see believers fully equipped by providing Bibles and sound teaching.

Establishes Businesses For Mission
We are training unemployed locals the art of well drilling and cement block making to fund the prayer houses.

Share the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Jesus’ commandment was "Go Make Disciples of All Nations." Through connecting with villages we are able to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
How It Began
Birthing of a 24/7 House of Prayer in Fa'arau, a jungle village without electricity or running water.
God continues to release His strategies and resources to empower the poor and oppressed.
We have been able to:
- Provided 95 water wells in 2017 for villages, schools, and clinics!
- The Orphan/Visitor House is now completed and in use.
- On December 10, 2017 public ground breaking ceremony for new 80 ft X 120 ft Church/House of Prayer
- Established a bottled drinking water system inside the Orphan/Visitor House.
Church/House of Prayer new construction project, so far we have:
- On December 10 we received a contribution of $2500.00 towards construction materials.
- Started fund raising towards 10,000 bags of cement needed to pour the foundation and pour the concrete floor
- Invited Church's, Business's, or House's of Prayer to send a team to help with the foundation and concrete work in 2018.
- Maybe you have a 4 wheel drive truck? We would love to send the Fa'arau a good 4 wheel drive truck in 2018.
- Contact me to arrange a fund raiser and/or a fall trip to pour concrete!
Our Team
God continues to release His strategies and resources to empower the poor and oppressed

Rick Rupp
Team Leader Rick Rupp has currently made 15 ministry trips to Fa'arau, Solomon Islands where God has birthed a 24/7 House of Prayer. On his first trip in 2008 God spoke to Rick. He said, "Rick if you help them build a bridge in the natural, I will build a bridge in the Spirit and birth a 24/7 House of Prayer right here in this jungle village of Fa'arau." Since that encounter, Rick has been obedient to God's calling.

Benjamin Troyer
Team member Benjamin Troyer (handy man), was born and raised in a rural farm and construction community. This has equipped him to train the unemployed villagers in Solomon Islands to make cement blocks, the milling of lumber, construction skills in the building of the Orphan House, tractor maintenance, and Bible teaching. We met at the International House Of Prayer Kansas City where we both served on the Night Watch (midnight - 6am) as full time Prayer Missionaries.

Dr Grace Lea Kim
On July 29, 2017 Dr Grace Lea Kim and Rick Rupp were married! Dr Grace traveled with Rick and the "Free for the Poor" medical clinics were restarted in December of 2017. This is such a huge answer to prayer! If you are a Doctor please contact me (Rick Rupp) about joining our short term medical trips. Most medical trips are a 2 week commitment.

"The team at IHOPKC strongly support the work God is doing in the Solomon Islands. Our heart is to see nations impacted through works of justice from a place of seeking God through prayer."
