TRY PRAYING FOR PRISONERS
This came from a request by chaplains who wanted a prisoner-friendly version of the original trypraying booklet. Written in collaboration with prisoners, it is based around the idea of ‘how to pray’ and uses prisoner testimonies, Bible stories, bold imagery and simple wording to introduce the Christian faith and the good news of Jesus. As well as being an engaging read for prisoners, it’ s a useful tool for volunteers and workers, that opens up a conversation in a natural way.
This version is geared towards male prisoners with a women’ s version currently in production.
Churches are being invited to sponsor a minimum of 20 copies for their local or regional prison. The booklet is £1.00 per copy and can be ordered online at:www.thereishope.co.uk/resources/ or email office@trypraying.co.uk or call the office on 0131 202 6449
