Fallow Land
What is Fallow Land?
Fallow Land is a one-hour gathering set aside for prayer and God’s presence. We meet on the first, second, and fourth Thursday of each month from 6:30–7:30am at Restoration Inn (71 Ingham Rd, West End).
All are welcome.

Fallow land is arable land - land suitable for farming - that is intentionally left uncultivated for a time. This rest period allows the soil to:
Recover and regain fertility
Replenish nutrients
Disrupt pest cycles
Improve long-term health and productivity
The Spiritual Application
The Bible often compares our hearts to soil. Just as farmland needs seasons of rest, we also need intentional time set aside with the Lord to:
Restore spiritual health
Replenish what we need from Him
Break unhealthy cycles
Deepen our roots for lasting fruitfulness
Fallow Land is a time to intentionally focus on these practices.

Each week will look a little differently, but all are welcome to come and observe or participate. This time could include:
Scripture reading
Meditation on Scripture
Quiet reflection
Prayer
Worship (live or recorded)
Lectio Divina
Repentance
Asking for, and/or receiving prayer
Fallow Land is not a time for passionate intercession or big activity, instead it is designed as a space to simply be with God, rest in His presence, and allow Him to restore and strengthen us.
It may be helpful to bring a Bible, a journal or paper, and a pen with you.
