Sometimes we plan things out just so, sometimes we seem to trip into an idea. We've loved our monthly Fast & Pray Wednesdays and have been doing them for quite a while. But recently, when someone got the date wrong and showed up on a different Wednesday to pray, we thought, "Hey, why can't every Wednesday be a Fast & Pray Wednesday?"

And so, in case you haven't heard, our sanctuary is open every Wednesday from 12-1 for prayer. Our staff is taking turns making sure that the lights are on and that there is someone to pray with anyone who joins us.

The format is very simple. The doors are open, the space is available and the schedule is flexible. Typically, we pray on our own until about 12:45 and then gather together to share needs and pray before we go back into our day. But, if you come and want someone to pray with you at any time, that's what we're here for. If you come and just want to spend time quietly praying alone, just let us know and you can have all the time you need.

Additionally, we are committed to fasting with you on Wednesdays. That might be a meal, a whole day's worth of meals, social media, or anything else the Lord has put on our hearts, but we will intentionally set something aside on these days and replace it with prayer.

It should also be said that if you need a place to be alone with God, to be silent, to pray, to study, or whatever other spiritual discipline you're pursuing, we want to help. We are happy to make the sanctuary or other spaces, including the Freedom Community Centre rooms, available to you at other times of the week. Just contact the office and let us know what you need.

As we've increased our focus on prayer this year, we've seen God move in amazing ways. We are called to prayer and we are called to fasting so let's do it together. (And I hope you know that if Wednesdays don't work for you, you can practice these disciplines any day of the week!)

Hope that you can make this a part of your Wednesdays... with us at the church or from wherever you are.
