Eight Days of Fasting and Prayer - Good Shepherd Church

GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH STARTED THE FIRST OF EIGHT DAYS OF FASTING AND PRAYER YESTERDAY, 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.

Blessings on you all.

Rev Catherine Nicolette Whittle
