Join us for our Day of Prayer and Fasting on October 6th. You can choose to participate in this day of prayer however you would like, wherever you find yourself. As an initiative to increase our dependency on the Spirit, and seeking God to do a transformative work in and through Sardis Fellowship, we set aside the first Monday of every month to fast and pray. We know not everyone is able to do this in the same way, or to the same degree, so we ask you to consider how you can make this work for you. Each month we highlight something to focus on, whether that be in the life of our church family, our local community or world. Sometimes we have specific things for you to pray through and sometimes we just give you the focus and allow God’s Spirit to guide you in your prayer time around that topic.

Our focus for prayer this month is on our church consultation. Our church leadership believes it is good for us to be a part of a "collective & reflective" process to help us hear from each other and from God about the health of our church family and how we are doing with the mission of making disciples. And that's what the consultation with our Fellowship is all about. Please pray that we would have open ears and humble hearts to receive instruction from our Fellowship on things that we need to address to align ourselves more fully with God's mission for this church in this community. Pray for our leaders to have wisdom to know how to prioritize the most important aspects that we will need to work on. Pray for a spirit of love and unity as a church family as we go through this time of discovery together. May God be glorified through everything we do in this consultation. Thanks for praying, Rod Heppell, Lead Pastor.
