GRAND OPENING THIS WEEKEND

First of all we want to exemplify the Rock Church's mission, which is to evangelize San Diego.  Save, Equip and Send.  Question is how do we get from recycling cans and bottles to... that? Well, we have a program called the "5 'n' 1".  What is that? How does it help us accomplish the Rock Church's mission? 

 Here are a few steps we can take to do just that!

Step 1

• Participate in this "5 'n' 1" recycling program that challenges us to reach out and ask at least 5 of our friends, neighbors or co-workers and one work place for their recyclable beverage containers (aluminum cans and plastic and glass bottles) each week and bring those into the church every Sunday. 
• Ask them if they wouldn't mind setting them aside for you each week in order to save children's lives.  Hand them one of our 5'n'1 recycling information cards, (available from the recycling volunteers in the parking lot each Sunday.) Then set up a day to pick them up!

Step2

• Pick up their recyclables. Answer any questions they may have about The Rock, the recycling program or our sponsored children etc.

Step 3

• Update them on the progress of our ministry by giving them a Rock Church recycling partnership "Thank You Card after a few weeks.  Updates can be found here on the website (I will develop a update section.)  Let them know what our combined efforts are generating and how many kids we have sponsored together with their help.  Give them the Rock Church website information to check out. Again, answer any questions they may have.  Share a story of one of our kids or share what God is doing in your life!

Step 4

• About week 5-6, hand them an "Invitation" (coming soon) to the Rock Church!

As Christians, we are called to tell people about Christ, but the majority of us don't know how and are intimidated by the thought of doing it.  This ministry gives us an opportunity to approach neighbors in the most un-intimidating way... their trash.  

Asking for someones trash really is not all that hard.  People recycle anyway, its the "IN" thing.  We are offering them the option to save childrens lives while they do it! It's a DUH thing! Of course they will!

This ministry enable us to become and evangelistic monster in San Diego.  Each memeber speaking to 5 of their neighbors each week equates to over 200,000 planted "seeds" and exposers to Christ's love in action as well as our Church each month! WHOA! This entire program is about small efforts from many people resulting in absolutely phenominal achievements!

I might not be a great evangelist, but I sure can ask someone for their trash, hand them a thank you note and then an invitation card. I personally don't mind letting Miles do the hard part, he's so good at it!
