Fasting and Prayer are used to help us realign our focus with God. Corporate fasting and prayer provides an element of agreement that produces results according to Gods word.  As we begin our Annual Fast and Prayer we encourage all who have volunteered to participate to be diligent and stay focus. Reading God’s word offers an excellent source of positive meditation. Please check here on the website, GroupMe, and social media outlets for daily faith declarations. We are here to support you.
