PRAYER REQUESTS

July 2025 

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. 

We also ask for these special prayer requests:

Praise: We are thankful for the continued stories of ex-inmates living productive & solid Christian lives in society that we have ministered with in the past. Pray that God will continue to raise up individuals to help change inmates’ lives.

Pray for an inmate who would like to gain control of her mouth and for her children to forgive her.

An inmate is asking for prayer for her children and her parents.

Pray for an inmate – who was raised in a Christian home but has walked away from his faith.  There are numerous people who have tried to meet with him for a 1-1 but he refuses all visits.  Please pray for a softening of his heart.

Pray for LCP & YIC administration – as they are called on to make difficult decisions, what is best for all involved inmates and staff, and help them be strengthened from outside criticism due to factors beyond their control.

Pray for a state inmate – looking for an aftercare place after release. He has a sex offense, and it is difficult to find a place in his parole region that accepts sex offenders.

Pray for stability in the prison – July is a hot month in the prison and inmate tempers flare and staff and chaplains have more on their plate in bad conditions. Please pray that God brings a calm peace to the prison.

Pray that SFPM – would have its financial needs met. Summer is traditionally a slow time in giving. Pray that gifts would come in at a solid rate.

Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart.  Luke 18:1
