Your prayers were answered for the outreach to CIW! Here’s the fruit: Over 300 women attended the two sessions and 50 women gave their lives to Christ! Also, 48 women recommitted their lives to Jesus!
Liz Holt, Amy Youssi, Kathy Priest, Eileen and Victor Marx
Their own prison choir sang a faith-filled song titled, “I Still Have A Future,” which blew the roof off the place (figuratively – no explosives used and no one escaped!). The song revealed the hope Jesus gives them – even in prison – and the confidence they have in His Promise of Redemption and New Beginnings no matter your past.
God tied that song nicely into Eileen’s message from John 8:1-11, the story of the woman caught in adultery. Eileen shared her heart with the prisoners and said, “I want to bring you to Jesus – not like the Pharisees did the woman caught in adultery to condemn her – but to be your defense!” The Spirit fell and the women’s hearts were opened for Jesus’ Love for them. Not a dry eye in the house….lots of Kleenex passed out to everyone!
Kathy Priest and Liz Holt each shared a message and their testimonies, mixed with transparency and outrageous humor! The prison ushers had to pass out Kleenex again to dry the tears of both heartbreak and insane laughter.
After event feast.. No, we did not eat the prison food.
Don’t leave me, Let me out !!
