Fast Sunday

A Sunday, usually the first one of each month, on which Latter-day Saints abstain from food and drink (fast) for two meals and donate the equivalent cost, or more, to the Church to assist the poor and needy. The money donated is called a fast offering. The sacrament meeting on each fast Sunday, called fast and testimony meeting, is devoted to the voluntary expression of testimony by members.
