The Prayer and Fasting Program
“The Prayer and Fasting Program” gives us power when we engage in our spiritual battle of overcoming the breaches in our lives. When we take up our sword in prayer, the fasting gives us the direction to which we hit the target, otherwise we are just swinging the sword aimlessly.
In this year’s Lenten calendar there are 38 days of Lent in which we can fast and with 3 meals a day gives us 114 meals and we attach breaches to each meal during Lent which gives us 114 breaches. During February, March and April, we are asking Catholic men to sign up to fast and to pray. This program is not limited to just those Catholic men that are Knights…all Catholic men are encouraged to join us!
Accountability is the key, because we men forget. If you have a prayer and fasting partner you have accountability and support. The 2 or 3 of you can do it together. We ask you to form your own groups of men you can rely on. If you wish to be in a group or be a Parish Captain with a group of men email me at [email protected]
Jesus sent them out two by two.
Why?
Because we all need a backup. (Someone who checks up on us and reminds us to fast for the breach that is assigned for that time slot, someone who prays while we fast, someone who picks us up when we are down.)
We do not wish anyone to fast more than one meal a week. If you cannot fast then you can pray for the one fasting. Click on the link below to review the next three months and choose your dates and meals to pray and fast.
