DTI 2015 – Day of Prayer & Fasting Today!

As our young people get ready to head off to the Lincolnshire Showground this weekend for Dreaming The Impossible (DTI) 2015, the team that will be hosting the event will be having a day of prayer and fasting throughout today. At DTI our young people can catch up with friends and meet new people from around the Vineyard movement. It is also a fantastic opportunity for them to meet with god, experience the Holy Spirit and grow in their journey with Christ. Many our young people return with amazing stories and a fire in their hearts for more of our God, it so uplifting to see.

If you are going to DTI or not you can get involved in the prayer and fasting that is taking place today. The team at DTI will be praying and fasting so if you want them to pray for you or others you can send your prayer requests via Twitter (#DTI2015 #FREE) or Facebook. You can also pray during the day for those heading to DTI and all the leaders and team that will be guiding our young people this weekend. Why not join the team in fasting as well, even if you miss just one meal?

Have a great time everyone and we look forward to having you share your stories when you come home!
