Fasting - God awakens us to grace through fasting - not just abstaining from food,
but releasing whatever dulls our hunger for God.

Scriptures • Awakened Through Fasting
Liturgy
Call to Worship (based on Psalm 69:9-10)
Do you want to be made full?
We want to be filled by God’s grace.
Do you commit to being made empty?
We humble ourselves before the Lord.
Let this worship feed your passion.
Words of praise feed our souls.
Unison Prayer
God of the Ages, your people have shown us examples of the richness of fasting. Where we are eager to feed ourselves and reluctant to abstain from consumption, help us make the first step. Help us dedicate all of our hungers to you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Offertory Prayer
God of our worship, take our offerings as a testimony that we choose your fast – to loose the bonds of injustice – let the oppressed go free, feed the hungry, house the homeless, cover the naked, and shine your light before all of creation. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
