The document is a call from the pastor of Greater Community Missionary Baptist Church for its members to engage in 21 days of corporate prayer, fasting, and giving from June 1-21, 2013. The pastor asks members to pray daily, fast from 6am-6pm by eating a healthy evening meal only, and to collectively give at least $5,000 to the church's operational reserve.
