Exodus 90 takes place in the ninety days leading up to Easter, experiencing tremendous spiritual growth and peace through prayer, asceticism, and fraternity. We were blessed to have about 70 men participate last year here at Saint Peter's, with amazing blessings. This year, Exodus 90 begins on January 20!
There will be two options for our weekly fraternity meetings: Sunday mornings from 7:45-8:45 or Monday evenings from 6:30-7:30. To participate, please download the Exodus 90 app to your phone or iPad and then click on one of the links below to join our fraternity:
Prayer: We aim for an hour of quiet prayer time each day. It takes practice, but as we get used to it, our relationship with God grows and we start to experience more peace and joy. Part of this daily prayer time is reading through a portion of the Book of Exodus, along with a spiritual reflection applying it to your life. Before bed, take a few minutes to reflect back on how God worked in your life that day.
Asceticism: This is a fancy word that means self-denial or sacrifices to grow spiritually. During the 90 days, we give up many things that have become false gods or distractions in our lives, so that we can have freedom to focus on God and the things that most matter. It is challenging, but you will surprise yourself and find that you can do it, with God's grace and the support of your brothers!
Fraternity: We men often do not have strong, God-centered friendships with other men. We might have drinking buddies or golf partners, but not true brothers in Christ. During the 90 days of Exodus, we meet weekly for an hour as a small group, getting to know each other, seeing how the week went, and experiencing a true brotherhood. We have support and encouragement, and make lasting friendships in Christ.
