02 Feb Introducing our new Rice & Beans Guide
Our team here at Lahash is proud to unveil our new Rice & Beans guide for 2016! This handy booklet is a tool to introduce new friends to Rice & Beans Month or to provide an update on how the past years’ donations have been impacting vulnerable kids in East Africa!
The image below is a sample of one of the sections. Each section has a short impact story, scripture on the topic, a reflection and a prayer, and a recipe you can try.
For those who don’t know what Rice & Beans Month is – let me share with you a bit about the event.
Each year during March (or during Lent) a global community participates in an event that is a unique intersection of faith and food. The event has three primary components:
- Solidarity – we stand in unity with our brothers and sisters in East Africa who have limited resources and inadequate nutrition.
- Simplicity – we alter our diets to emphasize basic and inexpensive meals.
- Sharing – we donate money we save during the month so that vulnerable kids and their families can receive much-needed nutritional support.
Our simple introduction video can be viewed below:
