As a church we begin our third consecutive year of observing a 21-day (January 8-29) fast devoted to the reading of the Word of God, prayer and fasting.
This year, we do not have any particular focus that we urging our church family to devote themselves. Instead, with two years under our belt, we are giving the freedom for the church to observe this in the way they are led by the Spirit.
Fasting - freedom to fast one meal a day, full fast, Daniel fast, or however God leads.
Reading of the Word - I am encouraging the church to consider reading only God's Word in these 21 days (except for reading that you must do for work or school).
Prayer - to spend extra time in prayer during these days.
