PRAYER REQUESTS
September 2021- 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 – that God continues to provide grace to our work in the prisons as we receive notes and letters on what our ministry means to the incarcerated during these difficult times of prison ministry.
Pray for Elizabeth Mattson, daughter of Jennifer Mattson who is a volunteer chaplain at LCP. Elizabeth is 5 years old and was just diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Pray for wisdom for the family, the doctors, and the school nurses.
Pray for an inmate – whose father just had surgery for cancer. Pray for complete healing for the father and peace for the inmate.
Pray for staff and inmates who have COVID. Pray for healing and that it will stop spreading in the prison.
Pray for the aftercare ministries – we work with and how the close confinement of ex-inmates’ affects them too with COVID. Pray that the virus would not hinder their ability to help instruct and place men spiritually changed back into society.
