Faith Seeds Ministers to Over 520 Women in Prison

Faith Seeds and Child Evangelism Fellowship, accompanied by volunteers (see photo) traveled to six prisons in three states to conduct three different discipleship seminars. The result was sharing the gospel message with over 520 women at FPC Alderson, Southern Correctional, the Mary Frances Center, Leath Correctional, Camille Griffin Graham Correctional, and the North Carolina Correctional Institution for Women.

Sue Johnson presented The Prayer Seminar, God's Restoration Plan, and Blooming in the Desert. Debbie Walsh of CEF presented the program on reconciliation of families and the opportunity to enroll children in a Bible Study. More than 140 women signed up for the Faith Seeds correspondence study. Look for more details on the Sue’s Journal coming soon!

Faith Seeds Prison Ministry began in 2005, when we met the staff at Operation Starting Line (OSL). We subsequently became involved in a statewide OSL campaign and have since participated in several OSL campaigns and events. Faith Seeds is a collaborator with Operation Starting Line. The ministry is also a member of COPE – the Coalition of Prison Evangelists.

Our primary mission is to provide discipleship to women inmates at correctional facilities across the United States. We have taught a discipleship program called, The Prayer Seminar, at twenty-three women’s facilities around the country. The purpose of the Prayer Seminar is to teach and equip women to pray and intercede, using Biblical principles. We also have available a Prayer Seminar correspondence course, called Prayer and Intercession Discipleship, which women can choose to complete. We offer other discipleship seminars, including: God’s Restoration Plan; Renewing Our Minds; We are God’s Yes; The Descriptive Names of God; and Encouraging Ourselves with the Word. In 2010, we are introducing a new discipleship seminar called You Shall Bloom in the Desert.

Faith Seeds leads a monthly Bible Study at a women’s facility. The ministry also facilitates a weekly Prayer Group at a women’s correctional facility, utilizing a team of eight volunteers for the program. We have developed seventeen discipleship programs that are available to women as classes or as correspondence studies.

Our secondary mission is to build a growing base of intercessors across the country that are called to pray for women inmates and for prison ministry. The Faith Seeds Prayer Force is a team of prayer warriors from several states who faithfully pray for various prison ministry events and specific needs of incarcerated women. Through e-mail Prayer Alerts and updates, intercessors are kept informed on prayer needs and concerns.

We also are available to work with churches and other prison ministry groups in the area of prayer and intercession.
