Family Fast -- Sunday, May 29th

For those not of the LDS faith, the act of fasting is going without food or drink for a certain amount of time...usually two meals. Fasting combined with sincere prayer brings us closer to God.

On Sunday, May 29th our family will be holding a special fast for the purpose of health, strength, guidance, peace, and comfort for Julie according to the Lord's will. We invite all family members and friends to participate with us. We know there is strength and power when loving family and friends fast with a singular purpose. "We can fast as we ask Heavenly Father to bless the sick or afflicted (see Matthew 17:14–21)." For more information about fasting and prayer, click here.

May 29th also happens to be Julie's birthday. If you are unable to fast this Sunday, please keep her in your thoughts and prayers this day. Cards and emails are very appreciated at any time!

Thank you in advance for your faith and prayers.
