My Grandmother’s Bible Stories had a great influence on my life. They often gave HOPE to women in prison by spiritual truths. Each story gives fresh perspective when we face sudden fears, shocking news, or disappointments. They remind us that our situation is NOT a surprise to God. We’ve been warned in John 10:10 “The …
Praise God we can celebrate the 250th Anniversary of America and our Freedom! I am also grateful we celebrated “Spiritual Freedom” at the 33rd Annual Aglow Prison Ministry Retreat.

Did YOU write some fresh ideas last month? Do not be afraid to start! God plans to help us do them. Philippians 4:13 NLT For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. When the Holy Spirit came into our life at Salvation, He brought Gifts with Him that we can use in our …
Habakkuk 2:1-3 “And the Lord said, WRITE the vision…MAKE it plain; that he may RUN that reads it.” In our Church Prayer Room is a Bowl of tiny pieces of paper. Each paper has a NAME WRITTEN on it. At the Prayer Service, Pastor Gary lifted the Bowl towards Heaven and we prayed for miracle-answers …
Last month you “counted” your blessings. Did you notice you had some miracles? Be aware that everything about Christmas is a Miracle! It began with God’s Word through an Angel to a young woman named Mary. She trusted and waited for the Promise. Luke 1:37 “For with God, nothing shall be impossible.” Read about elderly …
