Jail Ministry
We visit ladies in DPSO jail monthly. We also brink Christian resources such as Andrew Murray books and bookmarks. Jail Ministry Leaders: Mary, Nancy and Wanda. We will soon add Shelby County Jail and Panola County Jail. We are privileged to serve these precious ladies. We want to further their relationship with God and point them on a path of discipleship. We do not drill into them the mistake that landed them in jail we encourage the ladies that they have a future in Christ.

Write The Vision
I am thrilled to share the inspiring journey and vision of One Accord Prayer Association, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to learn more about our mission. Your support means the world to us, and together, we can make a significant impact.
Who We Are:
One Accord Prayer Association began as a small group of friends gathering in prayer for our church and community. We are an outreach that is rooted in prayer and commitment to compassion. We aim to run our race and ask our donors to allow us to serve our community in our own authentic way. One Accord Prayer Association is a Christian Public Charity, we show love and compassion to our community. We do not decide who we help based on ethnicity, beliefs or cultural boundaries. In other words, we do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, veteran, or disability status.
General Fund
Our General Fund is the backbone of our organization, enabling us to address a variety of needs, including administrative expenses, legal fees, and website maintenance. These essential components keep our nonprofit running smoothly and allow us to serve our community effectively.
Jail Ministry
Our "flagship" ministry is reaching out to the temporarily incarcerated ladies. The average time in a local jail is 32 days so we have a unique opportunity to reach out to these ladies when they had their worst day and let them know God loves them and he has not given up on the plan he has for their life. God does not judge them by their past but by their potential future. We are honored to serve inmates ladies in our local jails. In line with Matthew 25:36*. Our goal is to grow our volunteer team as we minister to female inmates. Our goal is to bring them one book a month that will set them on a path of a closer relationship with God. We want to impact their lives not just for the short stay in our local jail by planting resources in their lives they can have a closer relationship with God when they return to their lives on the outside.
James 1:27 Fund
Inspired by the call to care for widows and orphans, the James 1:27** Fund addresses the needs of underprivileged children and the elderly. We have current and future campaigns that will require ongoing support. We have partnered with "Operation Warm" and we have current initiatives under the James 1:27 fund are as follows: Cool Summer, Warmth (Elderly), Diaper Dash, Warmth (Underprivileged Children). This fund is very important because several in families in our community do not make a “living wage”. Our community is very underserved.
James 1:27 Initiatives:
1) "Operation Warm": We are partnering with “Operation Warm” to provide coats and shoes for children in ages 4-11. Support this initiative by texting "oneaccord" to 44321, using the QR or clicking on any "Operation Warm" photos on our website.
2) "Warmth” (for Underprivileged Children): We are also working on donations for “Warmth” in the form of jackets, socks, gloves, beanies or warm hats through retailers such as Walmart's Spark Good program.
3) "Warmth (for Elderly): This winter 2025, we will launch our “Warmth” (for elderly) initiative, this is a drive for warm socks which will be distributed to nursing homes and if donations allow we will offer the warm sock “free” at our local food bank which serves many elderly in our community. We are also aiming to provide care packages to underprivileged elderly community members. These packages will include warm socks, blankets, crossword books, and puzzles.
4) Cool Summer: One Accord Prayer Association will be gathering summer shoes, clothing and swimwear for underprivileged children ages 4-11.
5) Diaper Dash: One of our signature initiatives is the Diaper Dash program. We purchase a prepaid Walmart gift card and give it to young mothers facing hardship. With these cards, mothers can be empowered purchase baby food, toys or any essential items for their baby and toddler. The best thing is even if there are challenges with the young mother getting to Walmart there are shipping or delivery options our rural area.
Thank you for considering our mission and for your ongoing prayers and support. We’re excited to see how we can make a difference together, and we hope to connect with you soon.
Contend for a move of God and ask for the greater works.

Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
**James 1:27(KJV):
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
***John 14:12-14(KJV):
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
