Fasting

My church is holding a fasting fund-raiser for the youth group this weekend. Starting now, noon 2/22/08, through 6:00 tomorrow night they will not be allowed to eat or drink anything other than fruit juice every 2 hours or so.

We stuffed my son with a couple of pieces of bacon & eggs for breakfast, and he's going to sneak a bagel between classes before lunch. After his school lunch is gone he'll be officially fasting.

I have to admit I'm proud of him and all the other kids participating in the fasting and the lock-in.

Bonus: HE is contributing $50 of his own money and expects us to match him (of course we couldn't say no).
