It’s not uncommon for many of us to need to come to the end of our own ‘struggling against God’ before we can freely receive all that He intended for us. In light of this, we pray for the inner struggles that many ex-prisoners face - despite being physically free - and ask the Lord […]
It’s not always easy for ex-prisoners to find a community to return to who can see them in light of what God has done in their hearts. We pray that the Lord continues to expand the reach of our Bridgecare program across Canada, and prepare the local church to be the community who understands the […]
In the way of serving prisoners, our dedicated volunteers sacrifice a lot: time and freedom among many other things. But we pray that the Lord continues to give each one a timely glimpse of the great joy that awaits them in service to the Sovereign King. May our hearts continue to eagerly trade fleeting joys […]
We ask you to join us in prayer for one particular Bridgecare client who has been released from prison, but is struggling to stabilize their life with work and housing. In addition to a number of personal and mental health struggles, we pray that the Lord would prepare this client’s heart to receive Him, and […]
We pray that as we usher in the Kingdom of God in the Spirit of love, that our example will expose the failures of the current fallen systems in place, and that it inspires many to partner along with us in creating new ways of pursuing the restoration of prisoners. May we continually walk in […]
We pray that all of our staff, volunteers, partners, and supporters will seek to serve prisoners from a heart of thanksgiving. It’s so easy to become burdened in unhealthy ways in ministry. We pray that the Lord would ignite our entire community to serve from the heart exemplified in our Savior, the Lord Jesus.
We thank the Lord for the success of those who celebrate the accomplishment of receiving their workplace certifications through our Skills Development initiative. We pray that this will lead to many quick and timely opportunities for employment. We ask the Lord to open a door for each one that no one can close.
We pray that as we grow as a community who serves prisoners, ex-prisoners, and their families that we would also be a community who continually learns and desires to speak wisdom with our words. It’s so easy to speak haphazardly, or too quickly without listening carefully first, so we ask for wisdom with our speech […]
We pray for one particular caller on the PFC by Phone lines who recently had a tremendous experience while on the call, and it ignited an interest to get baptized. Though this is not something that is always easily accessible in Canadian prisons, we still ask the God of the impossible to make a way […]
God can often do things in our lives that leave us speechless in the way of worship and serving Him, but as we grow, He also imparts even new perspectives on old joys - just as can gain new perspectives on old pains. We pray that God would impart this blessing of growth upon all […]
All throughout history, the Lord has often used unlikely members who He chooses to hear from Him to direct and inspire His people with the vision He has for them. We pray that the sound of our ministry’s voice will not only be closely attuned to the Holy Spirit, but the sound will carry far […]
We pray for prisoners who struggle with violence would begin to see the power in trusting God to fight on their behalf, instead of letting their emotions and sense of control overcome their dependency on Him. Show them Your goodness, God. Build up their confidence in Your ever present help!
