Current Prayer Requests
(Last Updated November 4, 2024)
PRAISES
- Thank you for all of those that continue to supply us with large print Bibles. When I put out an email, so many of you respond and keep our shelves stocked. As you may know, all of our Bibles are donated. No book that we pass out to the inmates comes at the expense of tax-payers. This is a blessing, as we don’t want the governments hands in what we can provide.
- I’m thankful to see more sharp and qualified Bible teachers come aboard as volunteers, available to teach weekly classes at the jail.
- Pray for inmates PC, AD, DG and others that are making significant strides in their faith. I’m able to counsel these individuals as well as see them participate in my weekly Bible studies.
- One inmate writes, “Thank you for helping me with my spiritual maturity. I’ve been practicing right from wrong, studying the Bible daily, and I even have been teaching the Bible to others. I feel like a new person.”
- Our annual golf event was a blessed day. We had fifty golfers and great weather. Relationships were strengthened and funds were raised. Thank you to our event sponsors that are faithful to support our ministry!
Requests
- We are still seeing an increase in Jehovah’s Witness activity in the jail. I’ve been able to sit with three of the JW leaders and personally share the gospel with them, as well as have dialogue about differences between our doctrines. Pray these leaders come to faith in the real Jesus, and pray that the influence of these false faiths leave our facility.
- We are still needing to hire an administrative assistant for our office. Pray the right candidate comes to us soon.
- At Christmas, we will be providing Hope Packs to the inmates (more details to come), please pray that these are used to encourage the hearts of inmates to lean in to Jesus.
