PRAYER REQUESTS

February 2026

Thank you for taking time to pray for the needs of Support for Prison Ministries and the work of our chaplains and volunteers and those incarcerated that they minister to daily.

Praise Item – We are thankful for our Chaplains and volunteers who brave the winter elements to provide Christian support to inmates and their needs. This is a year around commitment being in prison ministry and we are grateful for our dedicated staff.

Pray for an inmate who has been sentenced and is disappointed with the sentence and that is making him struggle in his faith.

Pray for an inmate – whose son is sick and he’s asking for prayer for him.

Pray for the family of Leon Z. Martin – who was the father of long-time SFPM Board member Leon R. Martin, who passed away this week. Leon Z was a long-time advocate of prison ministries such as We Care and SFPM and was a volunteer at the SFPM auction for many years. Established businessman who love the Lord and those incarcerated.

Pray for an inmate whose fiancé is in the hospital.  This is a rough time to experience when you are behind bars and can do nothing. Pray for healing for her and peace for him.

Pray for inmates & staff – to overcome the winter blues. Many prisons that have outdoor activities are curbed over the winter and the cold can affect morale of the incarcerated. Pray that the volunteers and workers have their spirits lifted up.

Pray for an inmate at LCP – who after being on the road to recovery has again returned to prison. Pray that he would have release from the lifestyle that caused these crimes, and he can have freedom in Jesus Christ.

Pray for the Prison Conference – that SFPM is holding on Saturday, March 21 at Hinkletown Mennonite Church. Our hope is that prison leaders and volunteers may be recharged to serve in their roles as they learn to be able to achieve fruitful results in prison ministry.

Pray for the SFPM Roast Beef Dinner – a drive thru event being held from 10:30 AM – 1 PM at Hinkletown Mennonite also on March 21^st to the general public to raise money for SFPM operations and also to cover expenses of the conference. That there will be good customer response and we have enough volunteers to provide the food.

With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints. Ephesians 6:18
