Letter from the Director:
Naked and ye clothed me: I
was sick, and ye visited me: I
was in prison and ye came unto
me. Matthew 25:36
Why is it so important that
we reach out to the prisoner?
The one good reason that I come
up with is that someone reached
out to me and you. Although you
may not be locked down on a
unit, we all have been held
captive by something. If it were
not for the grace of God, we
would all still be imprisoned by
something.
Our goal is to keep these men
out once they are released from
prison. We want to see these
men reunited with their
families, becoming fathers and
husbands again. How many can we
save? we won't know until we
try.We must learn how to share
the good news with these men.
They must know through Christ
and Him only is the way out. We
must share with these men that
the only means of being cleansed
from sin is through repentance
and faith in the precious Blood
of Jesus Christ.
We have to become involved in
these men's lives. There is
no possible way daddy can be who
he needs to be, from a prison
cell. It is very important for
daddy to be at home.We
understand that every one will
not be on the front line,
working with these men, but
there is still something you can
do. We always need clothing and
linen donations, and please do
not pass us by with your
financial blessings.
May the Lord continue to bless
you as you bless others.
His love endures forever,
Tyrone McGruder |
