The Gratitude Challenge — become a congregation known for appreciation.
A multi-week, church-wide initiative that helps your whole congregation notice and thank the people in their daily lives.
Overview
Gratitude is woven through faith. Let’s make it a habit.
Most congregations already believe in thankfulness. The Gratitude Challenge turns that belief into a shared, weekly practice — from the pulpit to small groups to the family dinner table.
Over several weeks, the whole congregation is invited to notice the good around them and say it out loud, supported with sermon resources, discussion guides, prompts, and Hooray stories.
