I have a great open door of ministry in Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). Therefore, I have stepped aside from my Community Care responsibilities and will no longer receive a salary from Midway Church.
However, I am very pleased to provide a seasoned Pastoral presence in TDCJ. This provides strength and stability among believers in Prison. Nancy and I are scheduled to receive our new security training this Spring to gain clearance as Certified Volunteer Chaplains Assistants (CVCA). This will allow us to work closely with TDCJ Chaplains to provide Christ-Centered discipleship programs.
This is a great work that will allow us to reach many for Christ and to disciple devoted followers. This requires significant time on the road and in Hotels, We will need to raise about $45,000 annually which includes costs of travel and hotels for the year.
In the first 12 months of our inaugural year (2019-2020) Nancy and I took 12 trips for 26 days of ministry. We trained 29 Volunteers and ministered to 1066 inmates and taught the course 7 times. We experienced 17 salvations. This is why we need to return to the Prisons.
Please consider partnering with us financially. Your generosity is deeply appreciated.
What’s ahead?
Production of the books and videos are complete and the distribution process has begun.
Our 501C3 Board will be moving forward in the spring of 2025 to increase the impact of Taking Anger Seriously. The Taking Anger Seriously book is the tap root for all future Taking Anger Seriously products. And the 501c3 working Board is tasked to put this program into every major Jail and Prison in the United States. They will continue to raise revenues to create Video Programs for Preschool, Junior High and Highschool students and to translate the materials into other languages for the nations.
Not only does this course provide an opportunity to address our anger, it allows us to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Please support Nancy and me in this great ministry. We are your missionaries to prisons throughout the US.
