21 Days of Prayer and Fasting

Focus The First Of Your Year On God Through Prayer & Fasting

We take 21 days at the beginning of every year to focus our hearts and minds on God through prayer and fasting. This initiative will take place beginning at sundown on January 7th, 2024.

Daily prayers will be sent out as push notifications on the Canvas Church app to guide your daily practice of prayer. Download the Canvas Church app by searching “Canvas FL” in your app store. See a detailed description of different fasting options in our ‘Types of Fasts’ section.

We believe that when we give the first of our year to God, he honors that by blessing the rest. Join us as we seek God for 21 days together!

Types of Fasts

Fasting is a spiritual discipline that involves depriving oneself of something in order to increase ones focus on God. Fasting is referenced as a valuable tool in both the old and new testaments.
