StJW 24HR Fast

March 11-12, 2011

How long have you gone without eating? 3 hrs? 6 hrs? maybe more?

Fasting, an age old tradition in our church, teaches us the value of waiting, of dis-satisfaction, of abstaining.

On March 11-12, St. Joseph the Worker Youth Ministry and St. Paschal Baylon Youth Ministry will be coming together for TWENTY-FOUR HOURS OF FASTING from 6 PM Friday until 6 PM Saturday.

“Fasting is the support of our soul: it gives us wings to ascend on high, and to enjoy the highest contemplation! [...] God, like an indulgent father, offers us a cure by fasting.” (Saint John Chrysostom)
