What a tremendous Christmas season we’ve had! Christ Tabernacle is looking to move forward to a great New Year, filled with growth and serving God with more passion and devotion.

Starting Monday, January 14th, Christ Tabernacle will embark on a journey of 21 days of prayer and fasting. Pastor Celovsky’s message this Sunday will be on the spiritual power of fasting, and will offer a deeper understanding of God’s plan for fasting and the benefits available to those who participate.

Jesus Himself fasted because he knew that some supernatural realities could not be released in any other way. For that reason alone, we believe that Christians should make fasting a common practice.

We will be fasting for God to move in three specific areas:

1. RELEASE - for those being held captive by sin, addictions, depression and other forms of bondage (Isaiah 58:6)
2. RESTORATION - specifically in the areas of family, finances, relationships and health. (Joel 2:25)
3. REVIVAL - as we “humble [ourselves] and pray and seek his face.” (2 Chronicles 7:14)

We hope you’ll come on this journey with us, as we seek the Lord through fasting and prayer. We believe God has a mighty plans for Christ Tabernacle, and we go forward with expectancy. Join us this Sunday for Pastor Sam’s sermon, “The Transforming Power of Prayer and Fasting!”
