“Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
and break every yoke?

Is it not to share your food with the hungry
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—
when you see the naked, to clothe him,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?

Isaiah 58:6-7

By fasting we petition the Lord, and we remind ourselves to think of others. Sign up for the Prayer and Fasting Chain to prepare for the upcoming Missions Contribution. Use the form below to choose a day.
