The Challenge

We’re calling everyone at ROCKHARBOR South County to consider what they might sacrifice until Easter on behalf of a real and felt need in the life of someone else.

Can you live off the food in your pantry?
Can you turn off your heat?
Can you ride your bike to work?
Can you turn in your cable box?

Can you only eat beans and rice for dinner for five weeks?

Here’s what we’re up to ::

  • From now through this Sunday the 28th, we want everyone to consider a sacrifice they would make in their life or the life of their family in order to give to someone or something else.
  • On March 1st we begin! From March 1st through Easter Sunday we sacrifice together for five weeks.
  • Another huge part of this happens during these five weeks. This is when we begin the process of asking God what he wants us to do with the money we’ve saved. What will it be? :: give towards a neighbor’s mortgage? Give toward a water well? Groceries for someone?

Whatever it is, don’t miss this important time to continue learning to discern God’s voice in your life…..

Lastly, please share your story here!! What is God doing? What are you giving up? What is God teaching you? Is this difficult? Easy? Let’s talk!

  1. Okay, so we are with you on this Beans and Rice journey!!! Not sure where our money will be going yet but it is definitely helping us to just be grateful for the little things in life. God has provided us with so many extras and I think we forget that!
