Letters

One of the first letters Marvin opened this morning had to be read out loud and when he was finished reading the letter we all burst out laughing. 
 The letter stated that the prisoner wanted a Bible and wanted to start the Bible study because he heard after finishing all 50 lessons he would get a certificate AND $100.00.
 That just isn't true.  We are not sure where he would have heard that but can you imagine how big this program would grow if it was true!
In the picture below Vonnie has mom and Shirley stuffing envelopes while she keeps it all organized.
 In the other room Jeanette, Marvin and Kathy were all busy working on letters while Bill and Mark worked on the computers. 
 After all the mail was processed, we all went into the other room to start wrapping Bibles for today's mailing.

It wasn't until after lunch that Marvin shared some of another letter and asked us to pray for this prisoner. So I'm asking you or anyone that reads this to pray also. This man is in prison for murder, he admits to murdering the couple (his relatives) that took him in to live with them after he was released from jail. He wants help, needs help, he writes that he thinks he is going crazy.  Please pray that this man could turn his life, heart and soul over to Jesus who can and will forgive even the vilest of sinners and heal his mind. He will still suffer the consequence of his actions but will no longer be in the clutches of the evil deceiver who comes to steal, kill and destroy.
