Good Shepherd Church is on the Fourth of Eight Days of Fasting and Prayer


GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH IS ON THE FOURTH OF EIGHT DAYS OF FASTING AND PRAYER, THE INTENTION FOR PEACE IN CURRENT AREAS OF CONFLICT.
Why not join us? 

We call on Priests, Pastors, Heads of different Denominations 
and all of goodwill to join us.
Good Shepherd Church is fasting in the following way;
One meal a day, sufficient to keep health, 
and sufficient fluids during the day.
If the faster has an illness, is pregnant, very young or elderly, 
fasting then consists not in lowering food intake, 
but fasting from other items 
such as a favourite dessert, 
or fasting from an unkind word.
Another form of fasting is a kind action.

There are  many different forms of prayer. 
The one most comfortable for you is the right one. 
Please raise your heart and mind to the One Whose Hand made us all, 
that peace might return to the areas of conflict 
in which heartrending scenes of death, 
mutilation and suffering are occurring.
 
Mark 9;29 "He told them, 'This kind cannot be driven out 
by anything but prayer and fasting'. "
Blessings on you all.
Rev Catherine Nicolette Whittle
