FASTING ON A SUNDAY

In the church, Fast Sunday is a Sunday (usually the first Sunday of every month) set aside for fasting.On Fast Sunday, members of the church are encouraged to fast for two consecutive meals; most members of the church choose to skip the first two meals on Sunday, though some skip the last meal on Saturday and the first meal on Sunday. Members are also encouraged to give the money  which will be used by the church to help the needy.
A ccording to HINDU BLOG.Ravivar, or Sunday, is dedicated to Lord Surya or Suryanarayana. Upvaas or fasting on the day is dedicated to the Sun God. Red is the color of the day.
Those people who undertake fast on the day only eat food once that too before sunset. Salt, oil and fried food items are avoided.
