What is What If…

What is What If...? After years of talking about making a difference in our community, God showed up and challenged North Rock Hill Church during a sermon series on Nehemiah called ‘Bricks’. Bricks challenged us to have Jesus’ heart for our community, we are now putting legs on that call.

How are we doing this? By defining our “Circle of Accountability,” creating a 10 year strategy to impact our community, and challenging ourselves to consider how we will both participate and give to make this vision a reality.

What If... asks you to dream about the possibilities of what could be if we worked together around a common vision for our area… our home… our city. To make that happen we have asked each person to consider two very important things… What can you do? What can you give?

If you are new to North Rock Hill Church, we invite you to join us on this journey. For us to accomplish this great challenge, it will require every person doing and every person giving.

What If... each of us prayed to a missionary God? We would all become missionary! We would respond to a call to serve and give. I want to thank you in advance for playing your part in one of our greatest moments at North Rock Hill Church.

What If Goals

What if there are more Christians per capita in the Carolinas...

01 • There are more Christians per capita in the Carolinas

Using our church planter training called the Cypress Project, missional leaders for each region of the Carolinas are identified, trained, released, and networked.

What if there are no orphans in our region...

02 • There are no orphans in our region

Developing a Foster Care partnership in 3 years and an adoption program in 5 years results in a home for every orphan.

What if every school in our CoA has a strategic church partnership...

03 • Every school in our city has a strategic church partnership

Collaborating partnerships with other churches and new church plants are leveraged to provide a strategic church partnership for each willing school.

04 • The region is saturated with missional churches

Developing collaborating partnerships with other churches and starting five new church plants in five years saturates our region with Kingdom-focused churches.

05 • We see major transformation in another unreached nation

Alongside our work in Cuba, another unreached nation is identified with 1 year, and a 9-year plan to impact the nation by first meeting humanitarian needs is set in motion.

What if we strategically meet the transitional needs of our community...

06 • We strategically meet the transitional needs of our community

Beginning this Christmas with a Kid’s Christmas Boutique offering free clothes and toys to needy families, and continuing within 1 year with a community-focused counseling center and 3 years with “New Start” ministry, we minister to those starting over in life.

07 • Every Journey Group has a mission

After seeking God’s missionary heart, each Journey Group identifies and serves a need they are compelled to meet.

Creative Ways to Participate

Pray for children in need of a new home, a church planter, a school, or an unreached nation.

Work with your Journey Group to identify and meet a need in our community.

Use your administrative gifts as part of an adoption program, a new church plant, or to make a school partnership or transitional ministry a reality.

Harness your desire to help by serving behind the scenes in a food pantry, a partner school, or a new church plant.

Invite your neighbors over to dinner. Build a relationship that one day will give you the opportunity to help lead them spiritually.

Use your people skills to encourage those in Foster Care training, to read with children at a partner elementary school, or to open doors in our local community for new partnerships.

Adopt a child, lead a personal finance group for those in transition, or take a mission trip to an unreached nation.
