The 5×5 Challenge is a year-long, church-wide initiative that consists of five basic parts: partnering, praying, fasting, giving, and serving. Our practice of these five elements will focus on five ministries throughout the year. As we explore these ministries, we’ll also be focusing our prayers, fasts, giving and service in meaningful ways to help support and expand these ministries.

Click here to sign up to Take the Challenge or download a commitment card and bring it to church. There will also be commitment cards available at church.

We will be providing prayer guides at the beginning of each 2-month ministry focus.

Please download the 5×5 Challenge Chart and print to keep track of how you are doing.

We will provide specific ways you can get involved at the beginning of each 2-month focus. You can also visit The Ministries page to find out more about the individual ministries and their needs.

Although we realize that not everyone may be able to fast from food, we encourage you to consider alternative options (e.g. media, TV, taking public transportation etc). In the next few weeks we will provide great ideas of ways you can “fast”.

No, please continue to give your regular commitment to the church. The money given during this challenge is meant to be above and beyond sacrifice to those in need.

Here is a list of the ministries we will be focusing on and how you can connect with them in order to give:
Donate to Blood:Water Mission
Donate to North Littleton Promise
Homeless Ministry (more details soon)
India Initiative (more details soon)
Prison Ministry (more details soon)

Hopefully a deeper spiritual maturity, a heightened awareness for the plight of the poor, and an enlarged heart to serve. We’re also planning a special celebration at the end of the year for those who were successful in completing the challenge.”Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.” Luke 12:33
