Praying always with all prayer
and supplication in the Spirit...
Ephesians 6:18
My chaplain is very diligent by allowing the inmates to have prayer meetings every week of the year...

We also have a special prayer request form available that any man could use in order to request prayer for someone, or for himself. In addition, one of the men who's talented at woodcraft made a beautiful laminated box out of cherry wood for the request forms to go in.
Then, on a weekly basis, the box is emptied of its contents and the forms that have been completed get placed before those in our prayer group. At this time each request is given to God. And many of us have our own personal prayer lists, as well. I keep my list in an ordinary Composition notebook to use during my private times of prayer.
Furthermore, we pray for people from all walks of life, and for all kinds of situations and needs. For example, we've been interceding for the son of one of our church's members who's serving in the military; he's stationed in Iraq. And now we're praying for those who've been tragically impacted by the recent shopping mall shooting rampage that occurred the other day in the state of Nebraska.
Most of those whom we pray for don't even know that we're doing this. It's a secret thing between us and the Lord. But we've seen many of our prayers get answered. Miracles have happened.
