Holy Week Meditations (while Fasting)

Many citygaters are choosing to fast and pray this week leading up to Good Friday & Resurrection Sunday. Some are fasting the whole week (Mon-Fri morning), while others may choose just one or perhaps a few days. Whether you are fasting social media, food, coffee, sugar or something else, we trust that you will spend each day meditating on some of what Jesus went through in the days before his crucifixion. As you read through these passages, ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you about your place in the story, and to marvel at what Jesus endured and accomplished for you!
