Prison Prayers for June
Jade, the Fresh Expressions Community Prison Chaplain supported by the Church Army at HMP Winchester, has sent this month’s letter for praise and prayer. Please share it with those who will join us in supporting this vital ministry.
The biggest news is that the Philo Trust have agreed to provide her with copies of the Just10 films featuring J John talking about the Ten Commandments, recorded recently at Winchester Cathedral. This will mean she can run Just10 in the prison, hopefully starting in September.
Jade also writes:
“We have also had a wonderful group of men complete our 5th SORI Programme (Supporting Offenders through Restoration Inside). We had a great week with the 7 men who volunteered all being very honest about their crimes: a very emotional but a powerful week. I am now getting ready for our 6th SORI Programme.”
Jade has spoken at several places this month, including the Transformed event in Southampton when the Lord used her testimony to speak into the life of one of the ladies who was there. Jade is to be part of the ministry team who heads up these events, with particular responsibility for following up any ladies who make commitments.
She also writes about her continued trips to support two men on the Isle of Wight, one completing his sentence whilst growing in faith as God transforms him, and the other with whom she has been praying after his release as she encourages him on his faith journey.
She finishes her letter with the following words:
“Last week I had the privilege of praying with a young man who had suffered terrible abuse as a child. I know without the faithful prayer warriors who intercede daily for these men, I could not have been able to see Jesus set this man free from so many painful memories. I never want to take any of you for granted and I praise God for each one of you… God bless you all and remember you are also in our prayers.”
Please pray specifically for
- the next SORI Programme due to start on June 15th
- the Transformed meetings in Southampton on the last Saturday in each month
- for Wendy as she undergoes chemotherapy and seeks Gods healing.
