O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness...
Psalm 96:9a
The Church is alive and thriving behind these prison walls...
Psalm 96:9a
The Church is alive and thriving behind these prison walls...
These men love the Lord, and it is truly glorious to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
The Christian prisoners are grateful for their salvation. Jesus said in Luke Chapter 7, that those who have been forgiven of many sins love God more than those who have been forgiven of few.
Just yesterday during our Wednesday evening Bible class, one man, Julio, shared how he led his mother to the Lord by writing his testimony and explaining the gospel to her through letters. She lives in Puerto Rico.
Julio comes from a dysfunctional family. He had been estranged from his mother for a number of years. Now he's been in prison for a while and is doing a life sentence for a homicide during a robbery. But on October 7, 2000, he received Jesus Christ as his Savior right here in the Sullivan Correctional Facility's chapel.
Shortly after Julio was "born again," he felt that he needed to reach out to his mom, to apologize for causing her so much grief. And within about a twelve-month period, his mother was able to forgive him. Now they're corresponding regularly.
She's too poor to make her way to New York State to visit her son. But since they are now both sharing a common faith in Christ, God has bonded them closer than ever before. Truly nothing is impossible with God!
