84 Days Renewal Prayer Chain and Fasting (Epiphany-Jan 6th to Good Friday-March 30th 2018)

THEME: STRIVE FOR PEACE AND HOLINESS – Heb 12:14 The 84 days 2018 Renewal Prayer Chain and Fasting that connect us to this year’s Lenten season is beyond the familiar ceremonial cleansing ritual that prepare religious people for worship.
