Normally, I'm not into things like this. As noted, I read the Bible regularly, and I also get a kick every 4 or 5 months to spend a couple of weeks reading around in other religions - from Hinduism to Islam - and I recently, finally started back to church, but I generally don't see much use in things like this fast, unless it is well-publicized, which it won't be.

But, I think I'll give it a try - too keep NK a focus of my time - since I am also about to start back with grad school classes...

Christians from around the world are joining in a 40-day fast and prayer chain in response to “spiritual attack” on North Korea’s youth.

The second annual 40-day fast hosted by the mission group NK Missions will start June 1 and end on July 10. Christians from the United States, Russia, Ukraine, Kenya, Liberia, China, Japan, South Korea, North Korea and other countries have pledged to pray for North Korean children, according to NK Missions.
