40 Days of Scripture, Prayer and Fasting
Journey through the Lent Season
We are so excited that you are here! We invite you to join us for 40 days of scripture, prayer and fasting. We will journey through the gospel of John and some parts of Exodus. We will start with preparation on Ash Wednesday, we will have a service at 6:15 pm on March 2nd in the Sanctuary.
The 40 days of Lent do not include Sundays. There will be no readings and you may rest from your fast if you desire. This is because for the early church every Sunday was an Easter Celebration, so we invite to worship with us at 11:00 AM
Thank you for joining us!

Times of prayer: Spend 3 times a day in prayer
Morning
Begin Psalm 19:14
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Middle: Pray as you are lead
End Psalm 51:10
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me.
Midday
Let me be full, let me be empty.
Let me have all things, let me have nothing.
I freely and heartily yield all things
to thy pleasure and disposal.
You are mine and I am yours
Evening
Pray thru these questions:
When today was I most aware of God’s presence?
When today was I most distracted from God’s presence?
What opportunity do I have to be more aware of God’s presence?
