Be part of something epic... 24 hours of prayer for prisons on Holy Saturday

Want to be part of something epic? Then why not take some time on Holy Saturday (3rd April) to join with hundreds of others in praying for our prisons?! 24 hours of prayer, through the day and night.

The aim of the prayer vigil is to let the men and women in custody and
all prison staff know that they are not forgotten
and we are remembering them at this time.
— says Rev Bob Wilson, Free Churches Group
