Each year, we set aside a week to fast and pray together. This is a time to refocus our hearts and minds on Jesus and pursue the things of Him! This year, we are inviting you to fast and pray with us as we go after the vision of Deep&Wide. Deep&Wide will take audacious prayer, united sacrifice, and radical obedience. Here is how you can participate:
CONSECRATION IS
to make or declare something as sacred to seek more of God.
FASTING IS
abstaining from food for a spiritual purpose, because physical hunger deepens our spiritual hunger.

WHY FAST?
Fasting causes us to hunger for God in a different and deeper way than other spiritual disciplines, and it causes us to pray at a different and deeper level. Fasting helps us hear and receive something new and important from God.
THREE WAYS TO FAST
In addition to abstaining from food, another great addition to your fast might be taking a break from social media and/or other forms of entertainment. Take some time and ask God what He wants for you during this week, and respond accordingly.
FULL FAST
Eat nothing and drink only liquids.
TWO MEAL FAST
Exclude two meals from your daily nourishment.
ONE MEAL FAST
Exclude one meal from your daily nourishment.
