Prayer Center On Broadway Seeking Help

In 2009, Jariland Spence converted her sewing shop on West Broadway to a Prayer Center.

Men like Willis Lowe, who met sister Spence during one of her Sunday morning visits to the Hennepin County Jail; where she prays with inmates, go to the prayer center.

“She came and she moved me,” said Lowe. “She moved a lot of people and she helped us get our faith back.”

But Spence says her greatest success so far is Arthur Fields. Fields has a rap sheet going back 24 years. He did hard time when he got caught with a kilo of cocaine. But even a vice-lord has a bottom.

“In March, he walked in here on his way to get beer and crack and it was our regular prayer day,” said Spence.

Fields got baptized that night.

Spence is hoping someone steps up to provide support for the Prayer Center both financially and with other resources. They do not currently have a long term lease, nor own the building they are in.
