The Prison Fellowship and Kintsugi Hope are coming together to explore adapting the course for the prison context. You can read more about this compassionate Christian endeavour here.
Kintsugi Hope is about embracing our brokenness, and that is such a powerful message for men and women in prison to hear. When we share in our brokenness, we share our common humanity, and we allow God’s love to make gold. Their mission is ‘discovering treasure in life’s scars.’
FCG have worked with Prison Fellowship for may years and are delighted to hear about this new project which links people and groups together.
Prison Fellowships’s mission is to show Christ’s love to prisoners by coming alongside them and supporting them.
This new project between these two groups sounds like a powerful, prayerful and practical partnership.
Please join with us as we pray for this venture, in their journeying together:
Lord, you offer freedom to all people.
We pray for those in prison.
Break the bonds of fear and isolation that exist.
Support with your love prisoners and their families and friends,
prison staff and all who care.
Heal those who have been wounded by the activities
of others, especially the victims of crime.
Help us to forgive one another.
To act justly, love mercy and walk humbly together with Christ
in His strength and in His Spirit, now and every day. Amen.
