January: The Month of Fasting & Prayer

Graphic promoting 'The Sanctuary H5 Voice,' an all-month prayer and fasting event in January 2026, with a background of abstract blue and teal light streaks and sound wave patterns.

Each year, we set aside intentional time to seek God through prayer and fasting. This sacred season is an opportunity to quiet distractions, realign our hearts, and draw closer to God as individuals and as a church family. Whether you are new to fasting or have participated before, this month is about growing in spiritual discipline, sensitivity, and dependence on God.

Types of Fasts

To close out our Month of Prayer, Fasting, and Consecration, we invite you to join us for a special Prayer Brunch on January 31st at 11:00AM.

We are honored to welcome Pastor Sheree Thomas from Brooklyn, New York, as our guest speaker. This will be a powerful revival service marked by the presence of God; expecting miracles, signs, and wonders as we gather in faith and unity.

As we conclude this sacred month, come ready to worship, receive, and encounter God in a fresh way. Whether you’ve been fasting all month or are simply hungry for more of God, this night is for you.

Join us for revival. Come expectant. Bring a friend. Don’t miss what God is going to do.
