Every January for 3 weeks in the month, Ivy Church participates in the Daniel Fast.
It's a time for focusing on the Lord and seeking a deeper relationship with Him. More information about it can be found on this website link: https://ultimatedanielfast.com/ “My Hope is in You” is the theme for the 2026 Daniel Fast. Each day of the fast, you’ll focus on one verse at a time from Psalm 25.
The next Daniel Fast will be held January 4-25, 2026. |
‘The Daniel Fast is an opportunity for you to draw closer to God through fervent, focused prayer. It involves a 21-day commitment to a partial fast, which means you restrict commonly enjoyed foods as an act of worship and consecration to the Lord.
Daniel was greatly concerned for his people and sought the Lord’s wisdom during a time of prayer and fasting.
“At that time I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks. I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips" (Dan. 10:2-3).
"The intention of the modern-day Daniel Fast is not to duplicate exactly what Daniel did but the spirit in which he did it. Daniel’s passion for the Lord caused him to hunger and thirst more for spiritual food than for physical food."
"The most important part of the Daniel Fast is that you deny yourself physically so that you may seek the Lord in prayer and grow closer to Him."

For Your Diary: Easter is a very special time for us each year. We remember the crucifixion and the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He was bruised for our transgressions, paying the price for the sinful nature of man - us. On the 3rd day He rose from the grave, conquering death, forgiving us, and giving us eternal hope.
Easter Sunday in 2026 will be on 5th April. |
