Wash Feet
Every need in the world is an OPEN DOOR to share God’s love. That’s why, as a church family, we’re responding to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis, not by panicking or hiding out of fear, but by serving the people who are in need.
RHCCC will Wash Hands & Wash Feet. We will wash hands as we take precautionary measures out of love, we will wash feet as we serve our community out of love (especially those who are vulnerable and in need). RHCCC is called to be the light, the city on the hill (Matt. 5:14) – we want to be a church that is always moving forward and sharing the hope of Jesus in every context. We will exercise our God-given resources to continue to impact our City at all times.
Love Your Neighbour
We’re socially isolated. We’re working from home. We can’t gather in groups. But there are still plenty of ways to love your neighbours. Here are some ideas to “love your neighbour as yourself”, even at a distance.

Encouragement Cards
Over the past 7 weeks, our church families have created encouragement cards for our Frontline Workers (Medical Health Workers, Supermarket Workers, Restaurant Workers). These cards have been collected and put them together as booklets and posters. They will be delivered to our frontline community along with our hand sewn masks and prayers of blessings.

Prayer Walk

What is Prayer Walking?
Prayer walking is asking the Holy Spirit to illuminate the needs of your community and its people as you intercede for them. It is praying on site with insight.
Praying for Our Community:
Praying for our community shows that we are loving them as God commands and commissions His people to do. As we increase our awareness of community needs, God prompts our heart to meet them. Imagine what it would look like if every street in our city was prayed for!
How to go on a Prayer Walk:
- Go alone or with your others. (Bear in mind social distancing.)
- Pray audibly in a quiet voice.
- Be observant to what you see as you walk and pray.
- Be open to anything God impresses on your heart as you walk.
- If the Holy Spirit prompts you to stop and meditate, do it safely.
- As alternative to prayer walk, you can do prayer-drive, pray at your backyard, or even prayer-finger-walk (open your google map, go to your street/area, pray for every house as your finger glides through the streets).
P
Pray for Protection – Begin your prayer walk by proclaiming Psalm 91. Pray for safety and physical health for your neighbours. Pray for emotional, physical and spiritual healing. Pray for fear to be removed from your street as Jesus comforts and give peace to those who live there.
R
Reveal God’s Love – Pray for divine opportunities to show God’s love and care to those who live, work and play on that street. Ask for creativity to serve your street – even amidst the priority to do social distancing.
A
Announce the Kingdom – Pray that God would open spiritual doors for you to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Pray that God’s kingdom would come to your street.
Y
Yield to God & Bless Your Street – Submit everything to God in faith. Pray for God to bless each person, each family, each marriage and each child with God’s peace. Pray that a spirit of hope would replace the sense of hopelessness.
