Welcome to our 21 Days Fast and Community blog and information site! Please familiarize yourself with the site so that you can come back here daily and be enriched by it.

Firstly, this is our 10th year working through this Daniel’s fast! Can you imagine that? It’s been a part of our church life and health. This year we will be approaching this season a bit differently. Let me share with you how.

Our focus for 2021 was emphasizing the core Christian disciplines of Bible reading, prayer and community building, and this 2022 we are adding: mission mindfulness in our “BRINGING” culture

1. We will read the Bible together daily. Click and download this guide: 21 Days Fast Daily Bible Reading And Topics.

2. Check this site daily where Pastor Lemuel, Manny and other participants (like yourself) will blog the day’s Bible verses and their insight on it. So, much like a daily journal, we will bring our conversations with God here.

3. In that daily blog, you are encouraged to converse with the blog by commenting. The comments should reflect your own conversation with God about the Scriptures and topic … as well as your response to the original blog. (Again, if you want to participate with your own blog entry, please do so by sending your intention and blog post to Manny at mannyvirata@gmail.com or Pastor Lemuel at lemuel@ljaministries.com.)

4. Then join us nightly at 730pm online at FB.com/waterschurchnyc where you can join the conversation about that day’s Scripture and topic.

5. You’re welcome to fast according to these guidelines, but we want to focus on furthering on our cultures we established in 2021 which is Bible reading, prayer and community built around it.

6. This year we are adding our BRINGING culture—that is to be mission minded or “missional” in that we seek to bring people to Christ and to take part in our Church community.

7. Make sure you join us in service in person or on FB every Sunday at 10:30am as Pastor Lemuel shares his messages on the series Fruitful Christianity.
