Fast Relief
Go without a meal or two today, and donate the amount of money you saved to a food charity. Share a link to the charity on social media.
Before Jesus Christ began His mortal ministry, He fasted in the desert. For 40 days, He went without food or water as He prayed for strength and guidance. As we donate the money we saved on food to help feed the hungry, we can find strength in fasting like Jesus did.
