About Me

1000 Grandmothers Prayer Initiative is a collective of the spirit of the grandma, granny's, nana's, big mama,madear, and all the many and varied affectionate terms for the unconditional and indescribable love of a grandmother. In the spirit of Holly Near's lyrics, "1000 Grandmothers", we shall advocate for a more peaceful society for children in particular, and the restoration of the family God calls us to be, in general. This blog is being established in response to the many, many, many girls(and boys) who are placed in foster care system, some in homes, others in group homes or juvenile hall. The numbers are too great to be ignored. So, grandmothers let's get going! Let's pray for the change we want to see, by being the change God has called us all to be! 1000 Grandmothers is a social justice response to Luke 4:17-18, and in partial fulfillment of an graduate course in Advocacy with Bakke Graduate School of Theology--Global Urban Leadership.

Pray for girls in group homes and in your community!

 I recently read a book called "Girls Hold Up Half the Sky"  it spoke of the many cases and mindsets that exploit girls sexually and abuse physically.  The message:  Girls are more than a vagina!  Females are more than half of the population globally.

Meditate on Mark 10:13-16 "...forsake not the children to come to me."
Please pray for the girls listed below:
