3 Day Fast
Unite with disciples of Jesus from across the nations in strategic prayer and fasting as we ask God to spark movements of disciple making among Afghans within Afghanistan and around the world.
Just as Queen Esther called her people to fast and pray for three days and God saved an entire nation, we believe God can do mighty things as we seek Him together!
God is writing a glorious redemption story among Afghans, and He invites us to play a part.

Focus
This year we've been sensing a two fold invitation from the Spirit to WORSHIP and to ASK. Maybe not shocking but deeply encouraging that God continues to extend his invitation to dwell in his presence, ministering to His heart and partnering with His Spirit in the expansion of His Kingdom family. We desire the joy and creativity that flows from worship to shape and sustain our asking.
WORSHIP
We desire to seek His face, dwell on His beauty, draw close to His heart, and boldly enter His presence. We encourage each person engaging in this fast to set aside chunks of time to dwell in His presence, to meditate upon His beauty and allow our hearts to be captivated by His heart.
ASK
We are freshly encouraged to ASK for Afghans with boldness and faith, allowing the Spirit to speak, direct and lead our times of prayer.
Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.
- Psalm 2:6
