They do use water for their services and rituals, though. They call it 'Holy Water', which usually comes from the water faucet in the sacristy although absolutely any clean water can be used. A priest says a prayer of blessing over the water, either while its in a container or in the 'Holy Water Font' and then the water is considered 'holy'. Worshipers dip their fingers into the 'Holy Water Font' before making the Sign of the Cross when entering or leaving a Church.
