Global Bridegroom Fast (GBF)

The Global Bridegroom Fast (GBF) is a monthly global solemn assembly of believers in to Jesus for three days. We are calling believers worldwide to join together in prayer and fasting for revival, motivated by experiencing love for Jesus. This is a time when we are called to listen to God directly, not just the words of man. This is not an event but an entirely new lifestyle in the grace of God; we will continue in this fast until Jesus returns.

At the International House of Prayer Alamance County we gather together the first Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of every month, as well as seven days in December, to form a “solemn assembly” of fasting and prayer in the pattern of Joel chapter two.
