Subject: Friend It's your Fast Friday message from Joan

True story to help you LOVE fasting!
-

Dear Friend,

Happy Fast Friday!


We've got a fun story for you today as we kick off the 30th International Week of Prayer and Fasting that begins Saturday, October 1, and extends to Sunday, October 9.


Our prayer is that you will join us fasting today for major blessings this upcoming "week" (which is really nine days) and that you will continue to fast in some way through to the ninth.


Just think how the Lord will respond! Just think of the blessings for you and your family and our country!


Don't think you can fast for 9 or 10 days?


Well, listen to this story of Br. Jean-Michel for help. He was terrified of fasting until he attended a retreat which required five days of fasting. Peace, joy, and healing were his rewards, and they can be yours as well, if you follow his example.


Your fast friends,

Joan and Dave Maroney
