2025 21 Day Fast:

Before we enter into the inner court, we must remember that the Laver was a place of cleansing and reflection.

 It is a place of seeing myself through the reflection of God’s word
and asking for mercy and help.
 
At the laver we recognize our need of purification and our declare our desire to be like Jesus. To be like Jesus.

• Purify my feet – Keep from going to wrong places but let me go proclaiming your gospel
