Prayer and Fasting Week: The plan in detail
Join us for Prayer and Fasting Week (22–27 February) as we intentionally set aside time to seek God together. From prayer walks and daily online gatherings to worship and reflective moments at the Kerith Centre, there are many ways to participate as we pray for our community and grow deeper in faith.
Children and Communion: Experiencing Faith Across Generations
When children join adults in communion, they encounter faith in deeply formative ways that can leave lasting impressions.
Week of Prayer 22-27th Feb
Join Kerith Church for a Week of Prayer and Fasting from 22–27 February, as we come together across all four sites to pray for our lives, our communities, and the world around us. Through gatherings, online prayer meetings, worship, and personal reflection, we’ll focus on the vision from Isaiah 54—enlarging, lengthening, and strengthening our faith.
