Adopt a Week
February 12-18, 2023
As we seek to build a culture of love and life in Diablo Valley, we’re proud to parter with Love Life’s “Adopt a Week” program.
What is Adopt a Week?
Adopt a Week is an initiative to help cover our valley in continual focused prayer, asking God to push back the darkness of the abortion industry in our community. The idea is each week, a particular church devotes themselves to a special effort of prayer and fasting all week long.
Here’s how you can participate in our Adopt a Week:
1. Set aside time each day to pray.
When you sign up to participate in our Adopt a Week, you’ll receive prayer prompts each day to help guide your prayers throughout the week.
2. Fast from lunch each day during the week.
If you’re physically able, we invite you to join us in fasting from lunch each day this week, because according to Jesus, fasting has great power to strengthen our commitment to prayer (see Mark 9:29).
3. Join the prayer walk on Saturday.
While praying on our own as we’re scattered throughout the valley is great, there’s also a unique power in lifting up our voices to God together. So on Saturday, we’ll gather for a prayer walk around the local Planned Parenthood, led by Love Life. For many of us this is the most daunting step but we believe it is important one, so we hope you will join us from 9-10am on Saturday, Feb 18th.
NOTE: This is NOT a protest but a time of prayer & worship (click here for Love Life’s full code of conduct for these prayer walks).
Check-in begins at 8:45am, so we encourage you to plan to show up a few minutes early so you’re ready to go when the walk begins.
