STEEM WILL FEED THE WORLD: INTRODUCING 'STEEMCHURCH FARMS'
I am SirKnight!
Lord of the Steem!
Wielder of the mighty Sword Excalibur!
Field Marshall of the Great Steem Wars!
Founding Father of the SteemChurch - the first ever Church of the blockchain!
Wise well beyond his years, with agility of those 20 years his junior.
Quick witted, ruggedly handsome, with a cheeky guy next door smile.
Arguably the greatest blockchain blogger to ever live.
AND YET ALL THIS IS MEANINGLESS!
Now you ask...
WHY?
Ladies and Gentlemen of the SteemChurch.
'Peace be with you'
Just four days ago, SteemChurch Witness Representative Jack Miller published this emotional and thought provoking post...
And this Knight's life is now changed forever.
According to UNICEF, 22,000 children die each day due to poverty.
This is utterly horrific and the entire world should hang their heads in shame.
Are we going to petition World Governments to fix this? No way... they are too busy lining their own pockets and those of their banker friends.
So who is going to fix this?
Well, all the SteemChurch Parishioners already know the answer to this...
WE ARE!
SteemChurch FARMS
Effective 5 May 2018, the 'STEEMCHURCH FARMS' initiative / project is active.
FARMS: Food And Resource Management Systems
Steem account @farms has been created and Brother Abiye @abiye has graciously volunteered to manage the account and lead the initiative.
To get the project started this Knight will be personally delegating 1,000SP to @farms.
How much food does 1 STEEM buy?
According to Jack, 3 billion people live on less than $US2.50 a day.
However, in order for us to feed the world we need to stop thinking in US dollars and start thinking in STEEM.
We need to know... how much food can 1 STEEM buy in communities around the world?
SirKnight currently domiciled down under, could purchase ANY of the following with 1 STEEM Token.
5 litres of milk
A dozen eggs.
1-2 kilograms of oranges.
So the first challenge to SteemChurch parishioners... let us know what foodstuffs you can buy with 1 STEEM.
The second challenge - help Brother Abiye design logos and flyers for SteemChurch Farms.
Earlier this year, this Knight coined the phrase:
'Steem will feed the world: one small farm at a time.'
https://steemit.com/steem/@sirknight/steem-will-feed-the-world-one-small-farm-at-a-time
Perhaps it is time we rephrased this line for SteemChurch Farms.
Be sure to tag your designs under both #steemchurch and #farms. Brother Abiye will resteem the best 4 or 5 SteemChurch Farms posts on the @farms account each day.
The Vision.
Whilst Brother Abiye will no doubt formalise the vision and mission statements for this initiative over time, this knight's initial proposition is this:
- To support agricultural producers and market places throughout Christian communities across the world.
- To encourage the use of STEEM and $SBD tokens as a medium of exchange.
In an ideal world - the content creator could create right here on the Steem Blockchain - then use their Steem Rewards to pay their butcher and grocer.
LEGEND OF THE BLOCKCHAIN
This is a brilliant initiative. For quite a while I have been in awe of the fact that steem has given people the power to feed a family by clicking a mouse button. It is the main reason my wife has been so cool about how much time I spend on this platform. Whenever I feel burnt out, she reminds me how many people have been helped by this platform. This is the true power of steem: bringing good people together and empowering them to make a positive change in this world.
Understand exactly how you feel Han.
SK.
It is true @hanshotfirst, when we feel tired there is always something that reminds us that we can not stop the fight we have started. I remember when you collaborated with @gavvet in the ligththeworld, it was great, in one of my post I got a very good reward to use it to do gifts to some children in a very remote community.
Project: 'SteemChurch Farms' is granted SteemChurch Committee APPROVAL.
Thank you SirKnight.
You may proceed Brother Abiye.
Thanks you @steemchurch for approving this steemchurch Farm by @sirknight
I'm a living witness of the lives changed by steem, a semester is about to end here in school and through out the whole semester i never saw the need to bother anyone for a loan or food to eat. On my birthday i was able to support the less privilege around me to my capacity and all this won't have been possible without steem and the GREAT knight @SIRKNIGHT.
This project is one I must put my body and soul into.
Long live the steemchurch!!
Wonderful example of the power of Steem Brother Tikhub. SK.
YES I ABSOLUTELY THANKS FOR SHARING THIS POSTS!
Steemchurch Farms willl go a long way in affecting lives globally.I look forward to working with brother @abiye on this project.
What a fantastic initiative.
The only way people who are suffering will get help is through the kindness of their fellow man. Government has proved itself to be ineffective at best and complicit with the misery at worst.
It is my hope that over the next few years the use of crypto’s for payment of goods and services becomes the norm, hopefully it would be the death knell of govt issued fiat shit.
Once again Brother TP, we see the world through the same libertarian glasses.
SK.
I just wish everyone else could see it the same way, what a beautiful world it would be......
Debt free money, no wars, no poverty, no scumbag banksters, no parasitic govt.....
I could go on but you know what I mean.
With the level of poverty and the wants and need in the world I felt the need to weep at Jack's post, with your ever present zeal to help the world with their needs through STEEM, I will definitely say this is a big move @sirknight, the initiatives keeps getting better and were reaching the world through your amazing desires and obligations to make a difference
Yayy💃.
Steemchurch just keeps getting better and better.
Now we have our very own Steemchurch farm.👏
@farms would not only feed nations, it would change lives.
Thanks Sir Knight, you are the best!.
🤗
hello dear @sirknight
We will change the world; that's the destination we are heading towards. We are not stopping, and we are not going to stop, until we achieve our goal. Every day, and step by step, we are getting closer to our vision. We are working to break the borders and barriers that stand between ideas and funds.
love to you and your team life style.i am enjoyed your steemchurch community post.
I happen to accept there is one approach to do as such and it begins with being familiar with "appreciation".
One group one Goal to change the world a superior place.curative post it is paramount for me.We can change the entire world.
@sirknight, it is a another great step. I think this project will help to people. Good job, keep it up. Thank for your kindness for people.
