About This Movement

Until the Fire Falls™ (UTFF) is a faith-based, independent prayer and fasting initiative founded by Dr. Brenda B. Matthews. This movement exists to encourage voluntary, unified intercession across the St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Saint Charles City, and Saint Charles County communities - one ZIP code at a time.

It is rooted in Scripture, sustained by prayer, and extended as an open invitation to individuals and groups who feel led to participate.

Participation is Voluntary

Participation in UTFF is completely voluntary.

No person, household, church, or organization is required to participate in any aspect of this initiative. Individuals may join as they feel personally led, without obligation, expectation, or pressure.

There are no quotas, requirements, penalties, or conditions tied to participation or non-participation. Participants may pause or discontinue their involvement at any time, for any reason, without consequence.

Independence & Non-Affiliation

Until the Fire Falls™ is an independent, faith-based initiative.

UTFF is not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, or operated in partnership with any city, county, state, or federal government entity, or any official municipal body. This includes, but is not limited to, the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County, Saint Charles City, and Saint Charles County.

References to geographic locations - including ZIP codes, neighborhoods, cities, or counties - are used solely for the purpose of identifying areas of voluntary, community-based prayer.

Scope of This Initiative

Until the Fire Falls™ currently operates within the St. Louis and Saint Charles regions, specifically including St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Saint Charles City, and Saint Charles County, Missouri.

UTFF does not represent, govern, or act on behalf of any governmental jurisdiction or region. The movement functions as a voluntary, community-based initiative within its defined scope.

Prayer, Fasting & Spiritual Content

All content shared through UTFF - including prayer guidance, fasting practices, scripture references, declarations, and ZIP code participation - is provided for spiritual encouragement and personal reflection.

This content is not intended to serve as medical, legal, financial, psychological, or therapeutic advice. Participants are encouraged to seek qualified professionals for matters outside the scope of spiritual practice.

Video Submissions - Voices of Fire

Prayer and testimony submissions featured in the Voices of Fire segment reflect the individual expressions of participating believers and are shared voluntarily.

Until the Fire Falls™ does not represent, verify, or endorse all views expressed in submitted content. Submissions may be reviewed and edited for clarity and appropriateness and are used solely for the purpose of spiritual encouragement within this movement.

No Ecclesiastical Authority

Until the Fire Falls™ does not represent, speak for, or act on behalf of any church, denomination, religious institution, or theological body.

Participants are encouraged to remain connected to their local faith communities and to engage with UTFF as a supplemental, voluntary initiative - not as a replacement for church involvement, leadership, or accountability.

Personal Responsibility

By engaging with UTFF content - whether through this website, printed materials, social media, or related activities - participants acknowledge that they are doing so of their own free will, guided by their personal beliefs and convictions.

Participation is self-directed and voluntary at all times.

The Heart Behind This

"This is not about being seen - it is about seeking God."

Until the Fire Falls™ was not created as a program or platform, but birthed through prayer.

It exists as a peaceful, voluntary, and spiritually grounded movement - uniting individuals across communities in prayer and fasting. This work is quiet, invitational, and never forced.
