We are uniting with brothers and sisters across Chicagoland this month in a call to fasting and prayer. When we fast, we are forgoing an appetite for something (food, media, etc) for the sake of focussing our hunger on God and spending that time with Him!

Would you prayerfully consider uniting with brothers and sisters this month in fasting and prayer? Please use discretion in what you choose to fast, but we can all practice fasting in some way, trusting that our hearts will be aligned with God’s and that powerful things will happen in our city. Challenge yourself and your communities and intentionally stir your appetite for God this year!

STIR YOUR HUNGER FOR GOD

I believe that God wants me to hunger for Him more than anything else in this world. He alone can satisfy the longings of my heart and I desire to be aligned with His Kingdom and His will for my life. I am fasting to ask God to change me and my church and my city. I commit myself to this fast and God’s plans and purpose for my life.
