(Acts 26:18) to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.
PRAYER AND FASTING
On March 28th through Friday, April 2nd 6:30pm we will have a time of fasting with prayer. This is a community fasting and prayer time, and open for families and friends to get involved during our time of fasting and prayer. So, whether you are a seasoned prayer warrior or a new believer in Christ we hope that you will join in and pray with us as we commune with God through prayer.
Grace & Peace,

Why Am I fasting?
A. The bible teaches us to fast and pray. It’s not a thing of the past. It’s a thing of the present.
B. Deepen my relationship with God. In doing so, I hope to:
Have renewed vision for the future. See where God is leading you in 2021. Increase prayer time.
Benefits of fasting:
1.It breaks bad habits. I’ve gotten very lax in my ‘diet’ over the last few months. This is a great way to boost me back to healthy eating again.
2. Health benefits. It rids your body of chemicals, toxins and sugars. This is a great thing.
3. Less hungering after food, more hungering after God and his truths.
4. It refocuses our priorities, which should always start with Jesus Christ.
5. Scripture reference: Isaiah 58:6-7
Paraphrased in the Message bible: Christian fasting, at its root, is the hunger of a homesickness for God
