A Manhattan pastor is going into day 26 of a 40-day fast over a ban set to go into effect this Sunday evicting churches meeting in New York City public schools. Pastor Bill Devlin, senior minister at Manhattan Bible Church began the water-only fast at midnight Jan. 17, and says he will continue his hunger strike until Mayor Michael Bloomberg and NYC School Chancellor Dennis Wolcott reverse their decision on evicting houses of worship from education buildings.
