Prayer and Fasting Retreat
Experience a Sacred Time of Spiritual Renewal: Prayer and Fasting Retreat
Join us for a restorative and transformative weekend of prayer, meditation, and fasting from April 4–6, 2025, in a peaceful retreat setting in New Jersey. This is a sacred opportunity to step away from the noise of daily life and rest in God’s presence.
A Time to Renew Your Spirit
“So we fasted and petitioned our God about this, and he answered our prayer.” — Ezra 8:23
This scripture reminds us of the power of prayer and fasting to draw closer to God, seek His guidance, and invite His peace into our hearts. Together, we will create a space for you to deepen your faith and nurture your soul.
Led by Teresa Yerkes, author, retreat leader, and founder of the Christian Meditation Center, this retreat is designed to guide you into a meaningful experience of renewal and connection with God.
