On
Monday 16th April, our parish
evangelist Robert Heaton spoke to us
about his work as a Prison Chaplain.
Having worked in engineering for 30
years he was asked if he would be
interested in training as a lay
reader. His course was held at
Doncaster Prison followed by an
Alpha course, both held in the
prison chapel. Eventually he was
offered a part time job as prison
chaplain. He spoke about his
pastoral care of the prisoners and
how some of them were truly sorry
for their wrongdoing and had turned
to Christ. His work is so
worthwhile, but owing to the present
economic climate his future is
uncertain. Please remember Robert in
your prayers and for his ministry at
Doncaster Prison.
