“Making a Change to Grow Closer to God”

Lent is a time for growing closer to God. Many of us endeavor this growth through fasting. Fasting is a spiritual practice that helps believers draw closer to God during the season of Lent. By intentionally giving up certain foods, habits, or distractions, we make space for prayer, reflection, and spiritual growth. Jesus fasted for forty days in the wilderness, showing us the importance of relying on God for strength and guidance. Lenten fasting is not about punishment, but about renewal, a renewal that intends to help us refocus our hearts on God as we prepare to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.

In that vein, we invite you to join us on this transformational journey as we grow closer to God. Together, we will embark on a weekly Lenten Fasting and Transformation Journey — a sacred season of prayer, reflection, and intentional living designed to help us become more like Jesus.
