Prisons Week - 10th to 16th October - join us in prayer!

You are invited by Revd Bob Wilson, Secretary for Prisons Chaplaincy and Free Churches Faith Adviser, to join with churches and groups across the country, for a week of prayer for prisons from October 10th to 16th.

This year the theme for Prisons Week is inspired by Jesus’s words in Luke’s Gospel: “Consider the ravens…” You can access the prayers and other thought-provoking resources HERE.

Join us to pray for the needs of all those affected by prisons: prisoners and their families, victims of crime and their communities, those working in the criminal justice system and the many people who are involved in caring for those affected by crime on the inside and outside of our prisons.

Written by Louise Alexandra Erskine and performed by award-winning spoken word artist Poetess Jess, this year’s filmcalls us to consider the ravens, to remember who we are and where we belong. Please share and use in your homes, churches and small groups, wherever you are. Conceived, directed and produced by Spread Creative.

If prayer truly works, if our weak human rambling to God actually changes things, then we must call believing people to pray, and together we must pray for change where change is needed most.
