This 21-day fast is an opportunity to dedicate ourselves to prayer, reflection, and seeking God's will for our church and our lives. We encourage you to participate wholeheartedly and experience the transformative power of focused prayer and fasting.
Experience spiritual renewal and build a stronger, more vibrant church community!
Allow the spirit to lead you during this time of fasting and prayer. Look for opportunities to serve or bless others. Help those in need and ask God to reveal ways you can reconnect with Him as you disconnect from some of the things that take time, energy, and resources away from focusing and growing more spiritually. Find peace and purpose as you begin the year.
