First Friday Fast
FRIDAY, JUNE 7
This year, we'll be spending the first Friday of every month fasting together and praying for a particular topic. Church members who fast for all 12 Fridays will be invited to a year-end party to celebrate the answers to our prayers. If fasting is new to you, here are some instructions.
This month, we’re praying for the Gospel to remain central in our church. Here are a few ideas to guide your prayer:
Pray that God would guide the hearts and minds of leaders in the church to be wholly dependent on Christ in their leadership, knowing that “Gospel-centrality” does not simply happen by accident
Pray that the message of the Gospel would continue to infuse the songs we sing and the sermons we hear
Pray that, by the power of the Spirit, God would help us each to be able to more readily and more fully apply the Gospel to our real-life situations and those of others around us
Pray that new members and guests would come to understand the fullness and the beauty of the Gospel and so be equipped to tell it to others
Pray for the Gospel to bear fruit in our neighborhood - through the making and maturing of new disciples of Jesus Christ
