IN WORSHIP THIS SUNDAY
"Fasting For Focus"
Intermittent fasting is all the rage these days - and we can understand why! There are proven health benefits including weight loss, cell repair, and increased metabolism, but it is not easy to not eat in a culture obsessed with food! Ironically, the spiritual habit of fasting - practiced by faith traditions around the world - is about turning your focus away from the body and toward the soul.

Join us on Sunday as we consider what we are making room for and how “fasting” might help us to focus - on God and each other.
