Valley Gace Day of Fasting & Prayer - Wednesday 3/25/2009

You are being invited to join with the Valley Grace church family in a time of fasting and prayer for individuals in our church family going through some difficult times, as well as opportunities for ministry in the days ahead.

Where: doors at Valley Grace will be open by 7:15 am on Wednesday so that you can come in and pray individually or schedule to meet with others to pray silently or audibly. Obviously you can choose to participate by fasting over breakfast or lunch, at home, at work by going to you vehicle and setting aside the normal time of eating to focus on prayer requests that will be available. You can participate at school as well.

How: you may choose to forgo all food and drink, or you may choose to drink fruit juice, water or some other healthy beverage. Obviously, if there is a medical condition that does not allow your participation, you can still invest time in praying for the needs of our church family.

Procedure: Begin with a time of prayer and repentance so as to clear up any personal barriers of fellowship with the Lord. Then follow this with a time of adoration and praise for who God is -- a time of worship. You can listen to a song that focuses on our great God, or read a hymn or song that reminds you of His attributes. Then bring your requests before the Lord.

Prayer Requests: prayer guides will be available on Wednesday morning beginning at 7:15 am here at the church located at the Welcome Center. You can swing by and pick one up in your travels. We will also be emailing them out via the Valley Grace email group. If you are not receiving group emails, you can request that they be emailed to you by calling the church office and providing your email address.
