Week of Prayer and Fasting

This week our Church is doing a Week of Prayer and Fasting. Our family, excepting Emmy, is fasting Supper. I, personally, am fasting sweets. It is a bit hard seeing everyone else eating truffles and ice cream.... Our Pastors have provided a bookmark with a guide to know what to pray about every day. On Sunday Mr. Day, our Senior Pastor, preached a wonderful sermon about what fasting is about. The bulk of it was about how there is so much more to fasting than absence of food. It is about trusting God the whole way. It was a great reminder.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and
petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Philippians 4:6
