1 Month initially started as a challenge to carry and read the Bible and can be so much more! 1 Month works well anytime of the year, especially at the beginning of the school year, and serves as a build-up to the See You At The Pole prayer event.
Students
Take the challenge and invite your friends, campus club and others to take the challenge with you. Pick a date and choose from the following ideas and live them out. For 1 Month:
Pray - Pray over your lunch every day, or ask a person each day if you can pray with them about something.
Live - Carry your bible everywhere and read it daily in a public setting (the original 1 Month idea).
Tell - Invite at least one person to church each week, or tell someone once a week what God is doing in your life.
Serve - Write a kind/encouraging note to someone each week, or ask your teacher/coach/pastor how you can help during the week.
Give - Buy some one lunch once a week, or give away/donate something to someone in need.
OR
Wear the same Christian t-shirt everyday for 1 Month and raise money for missions or an important cause. Yes, your mom can wash the shirt. Gather sponsors to donate every day you wear that shirt.
Leaders
Present the challenge in your youth services, Sunday School classes or small groups. We have ideas and resources to make this a month-long focus in your youth ministry. Select the date that works for you and let the adventure begin.
