We pray for a holy realignment in perspective for those prisoners so focused on ‘getting out of prison’ that they miss the deeper things God is intending to show them through this divinely orchestrated ‘time out’ from life. We pray for a perspective shift that is willing to consider that God is ultimately in control […]
We often hear about the dangerous culture of Canadian prisons. We pray that as God was able to deliver Daniel, Joseph, Moses, and so many others in history from peril, that He would preserve the lives of His incarcerated children until the day they make it home again.
Though the experience of incarceration can often draw individuals deeper into the darkness of solitude, we pray that the Lord would destroy polarizing perspectives and instead impart the mind of Christ in prisoners who can see the value, benefits, and blessing of participation in a healthy community.
We implore the Lord to do exceedingly beyond what we could ever hope or expect in requesting that He establish prisoner baptisms as a permanent staple in prisons all across Canada. As a marker of new birth, we pray this crucial declaration of faith would help to establish the new identity of Christian prisoners.
Although prison isn’t always perceived by every prisoner as the lowest they can descend before the desire for change is apparent, we do pray for those who have decided ‘no more’. We pray that just as the catapult is pulled back to launch something in the opposite direction, that the lives of the prisoners who […]
We pray that all across Canada in every place where returning citizens are scheduled to return this year, that the Lord would go before us and prepare a volunteer team with His heart to see them succeed. We pray that many new Bridgecare mentors will find their way to PFC’s Bridgecare training this year.
We thank the Lord for the many phone operators who offer a compassionate ear, wise guidance, and spiritual friendship through their service. We pray that the Lord continues to give each one the wisdom necessary to address whatever situations may arise, while operating within the boundaries of the program.
As the seasons change, so do the schedules of volunteers. We pray that the Lord will go before us to meet every new PFC by Phone opening this year with an already prepared answer to fill it! We pray that no prisoner will ever call the PFC by Phone lines and not find a dedicated […]
As we find opportunities to grow our PFC team across the country, we pray for divine introductions to the people God has purposed to serve alongside this administration. We pray that the Lord would give our senior team the clarity and confirmation we need to proceed with the delicate process of staffing so that the […]
As we continue to prepare new curriculum - or to develop our existing ones, we pray that the Holy Spirit would give us just the right words in every circumstance to know how to address the difficult topics in each one in a way that will land perfectly with our in-prison audiences.
We pray that Angel Tree Camping would be a time for the families of prisoners to experience the rest and restoration we all need throughout our journey. We pray that the Lord would ordain each step - whether knowingly or unknowingly - to lead each caregiver on the path of the kind of healing and […]
So often we can get blinded by our own pursuits that we miss what the Lord is intending to do through our efforts. We pray that every staff, volunteer, partner and supporter would find the necessary shift of paradigm where applicable in their personal journey, so that we can glory in seeing and knowing that […]
We pray that a renewed sense of mission for prison ministry would spread to key places in Canada that surround provincial and federal prisons. We pray that there would be no volunteer need in Canada that is not amply met with an overflowing abundance of available individuals through the local Christian church community.
We pray that new streams of financial support will rise up across the country to establish and sustain the work being accomplished in each region with a long-term vision in mind. Just as the Christian church wasn’t built in a day, we pray for partners with a vision for what the Lord is preparing to […]
Father, just as you have ordained times and seasons for your every will to be accomplished in this world, we ask that you would go before us and prepare a timely season for rest and renewal for our staff, volunteers, partners and supporters. May each one return with a fire that is not easily consumed.
We pray that the Holy Spirit will inspire the melody and words of songs in the hearts of prisoners that bring encouragement, healing, deliverance, and renewed hope beyond the current circumstance. Just as we teach and open Bible studies with worship, we pray that prisoners would be moved by the Spirit to stir up worship […]
We pray that our partners at the Canadian Bible Society will never be in short supply of resources to supply Bibles for prisoners. We pray that the Lord would anoint every Bible that enters a prison with power that supernaturally draws prisoners and fills them with the desire to read His Word and the understanding […]
We pray that all of the work that is needed to surround and support a supernatural breakthrough would continue to be established by the Lord in all the variety of ways needed to move the ministry forward. May this be a year of walking into greater influence and authority.
