Prayers for the Ladies of Kairos #29

For the next 4 days I will be serving the Lord in the capacity of being on a team that goes into a Texas women's prison to share God's love for them. Over 1500 dozen cookies have been baked to be distributed to everyone on that unit,  thousands of prayers have been lifted, and a team of 42 women will meet 42 sisters in white tomorrow. Pray for harmony for the team, open hearts for the participants, and God's grace over the entire weekend. It is our prayer that these women will come to trust in the Lord, find love and fellowship among their sisters on the unit, and can build a Christian community within the prison walls. There is a powerful service on forgiveness, so pray these women will be able to lay some heaviness of their lives down and let God take those from them.

Thanks for all the wonderful people at Christ United Methodist Church, Sugar Land, Tx. who have donated money, cookies, and prayers for this weekend. None of this would be possible without God's love and the love of God's people. I love you all, and cherish these wonderful acts of love and kindness.
