For the last several years, we have been ministering to the inmates of several different prisons. These prisoners have had a completer turn-around in their lives and have given their hearts and lives to the Lord. We ask these men to make a commitment to follow our Bible course “The Twelve Foundation Stones” and send them the needed course-material by mail. They eagerly study the material, complete the tests, and faithfully return them.

We’ve also sent Bibles, inspirational books, dictionaries, and other needed items. It has encouraged us to see that often the inmate participating in these studies will have such an obvious change of character that other inmates start writing us to request to also become a correspondent Bible student. From our communications with these men, most of whom we have never personally met, we can see that God’s spirit and the study of His wonderful Word is working beautiful changes in their lives.

We have included two letter excerpts below for your inspiration:

“My loving brothers and sisters, I can never ever thank you enough for being there to give clear direction on my spiritual life, Christian beliefs, and religious understanding.

True brothers and sisters are like quiet angels, who lift us up to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly. The good loving friends are like the stars. You cannot always see them, but you know they are always there. You are my shining stars and spiritual lights.”   S.M.

 

” Your letter and the book “Freedom Within- From Jesus with Love”  could not have come at a better time for me. I was going through some very trying times this past year and in the time that passed I heaped up  a lot of negative emotions e.g. anger, hatred, resentment, self-pity etc. But reading your book made me see the Light in life again. It really brought peace into my heart, peace into my mind and peace into my spirit.

Through acknowledging God and receiving Jesus into my heart, accepting that He had died for our sins and that we are forgiven through His blood. For sinful I was  (sometimes still am) but I know now, through the Word it will…..I will get better as time passes.”  R.K
