“As release day approaches, the problems awaiting prisoners on the other side of the gate can be overwhelming. For years, they’ve been told when to eat, what to wear, and where to go. Now suddenly they will have to make decisions on their own.”
Prison Fellowship goes beyond winning prisoners to Christ. Their volunteers strive to equip them with the life skills, work habits, attitudes and support to be successful following their release.
Mighty God, we pray for Prison Fellowship and other Christian ministries that prepare the men and women in our jails and prisons for what’s on the other side of the gates. Raise up committed Christians to support these hurting souls through the awkward adjustment–to be your helping hands, feet and heart.
When I was still healthy I wanted to do Prison Ministry, but the leader said I was too scary.
Yes, I took it as a compliment.
