INMATE TESTIMONIES
Testimony by: JM
I want to thank everyone that has helped me in understanding the Word better. I am looking forward to getting out and walking in the light of the Lord and helping people that are confused just as I was. I want to share my new life with my family.
Testimony by: BL
I was baptized in January 2017 and I am truly and faithfully putting God first in my life and all that I do. I have submitted to Him also. I am using this time to learn to be the man He created me to be. I am doing Bible studies and I can now tell others about Jesus and what He means to me and what He has done in my life.
“The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness. He will quiet you with his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.”
Zephaniah 3:17
"He heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds.”
Psalm 147:3
