Welcome to Week 2 of our Lenten journey. During this 6 week walk through Jesus life remember that the goal of Lent is to be a time of reflection, preparation, and prayer.

Fasting is a traditional part of the Lenten journey. It is a way to focus on Christ without distractions. John Wesley regularly fasted from sundown on Thursday to Sundown on Friday. I am choosing to fast during the week from 11 am to 5 pm. During this time I am focusing on worshiping God, expressing gratitude to Jesus and all that He has done for us, confessing my flaws and sins, and petitioning God to help me overcome those flaws.
