Hello everyone,

Diana called me and needs my help. Her son, Edward Max is getting ready to be released and there will be a meeting for his release being held July 14th. She is asking for letter's of appeal for her son Edward. I am clueless as to how to even begin one but I will pray the Lord will give me wisdom and guidance to do so. I am looking for scriptures in the bible that "talks" about prisoner's but can't seem to find them. Can anyone please email them to me if you find them. In addition, if anyone knows of a sample letter of appeal I can find somewhere in the internet that I can use as a guideance, please let me know. She needs this letter as soon as possible before the men gather and discuss why should Edward be released.

Thank u in advance and God bless all,

Illuminate

The only thing that I have heard about these is to only speak of your own experience.

It doesn't help to say I know his family.

They are only interested in your personal knowledge of him and any information you can give about his character.

I do hope you only want scripture for your own use.

It would really be bad to include scripture in any letter to the board.

It is just a letter telling them how you know him, who he is, and if you think he should be released.

I don't think it is anymore than that.

Hope that helps.

I would agree with Rachel. Jean


Dear God, please help Illuminate in writing this letter.
Please be with Edward Max serving time in prison and in the decision concerning his release. I pray he knows the Savior and has Christian support.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.

THANK U! I have composed an appeal letter on behalf of Edward Max. It is short, simple and to the point! Pray for his release on July 14th when these men gather and decide for his future.

God bless U and thank U...
