| to share Jesus via Kairos Prison Ministry this Thur-Sun. This will be
the first event at the facility nearest me, which is our state's
maximum security facility, and the first time I've done this. If the
chaplain has done his job, the 42 participants selected will mostly be
some of the negative leaders. Pray for the team going in, the
participants, the staff and other inmates - I suspect there will be
some major spiritual warfare. You can sign up online to pray at a given
time if you'd like. See the Prayer Vigl link at http://wabashkairos.org/

| May the protective hand of the Lord be with you and the rest of the team. Praying God will use you as his instrument to win more souls to the flock.

| That's a great thing to do, Topshot and I take my hat off to you (well, I would do if I had one on). Working in prisons is a very beneficial evangelistic way of preaching and teaching the Gospel. I know of a couple of people who do that sort of thing, and there are always open and frank discussions with the inmates and because the inmates have time to think about things properly there can be some wonderful conversion stories.
I pray that it goes really well for you and the team, and more importantly that some of the inmates come to a knowledge and love of God during this time.

| 'Bout time they lock you up!  Seriously, though, I hope that you reap a great harvest of souls while you are there. Although I have never had the opportunity to do prison ministry, I have heard that it is extremely tough, but rewarding. It's one of those types of ministry jobs that really isn't for everyone. You either love or hate it. Here's to hoping that you really find your calling there. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| Michael, I hope God's Holy Spirit will bring you to the people who need Jesus the most.
You don't have to worry what to tell because in the Bible is written God's Holy Spirit will give you the words you need to tell.
God goes with your team. |
