Our Prayer Council

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6 (NIV)

"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
Ephesians 6:18 (NIV)

The Stephen & Laurel Brown Foundation Prayer Council is led by the Director of Administration, Jean Collins. Joining her is a group of faithful community members from Madison and the university, all of whom have committed to pray for the Foundation, our team, and our many initiatives. Each council member individually prays for one hour per week and also participates in a virtual monthly prayer gathering.

We are grateful for these volunteers partnering with us in this vital way. We are encouraged and empowered by God’s response to their prayers. We also expect that “many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.” (2 Corinthians 1:11)
