Our fast begins January 22 at 8p and concludes on the evening of February 1st at 8p. On the February 1st, we will celebrate with communion and a night of prayer and worship from 7-8p. Food trucks will be onsite so we can break the fast together at the conclusion of the prayer and worship time.
Our fast is based on Daniel’s fast found in Daniel 1:12-13. We learn there that Daniel took a diet of vegetables (which includes fruits and grains) and water. During this fast we will use www.daniel-fast.com as one
