3 Days of Prayer & Fasting
At the start of 2026, once again we are committing ourselves to the Lord with 3 days of prayer & fasting.
Holding onto our key verse for the year:
‘For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.’
2 Timothy 1:7
We encourage all households to be represented at the prayer and worship night on Tuesday 20 January at 8pm (Riverside House). To gain a more extensive understanding of what fasting is, click HERE.
