Ministering in Prisons and Jails in Texas
We are a God-birthed ministry and we go into many Texas prisons and jails giving hope to the incarcerated (male & female) by preaching God's Word, sharing testimonies, and singing songs of praise & worship to remind them that there is hope for any and all in Christ Jesus.

It takes a team to lead, manage, and maintain a ministry with the scope of Hope For All in Jesus Prison Outreach. As we look forward to the exciting day when this pandemic will be behind us and we resume ministering to those incarcerated in the TDCJ, we want you to meet our ministry team.
We invite you to take a moment and visit the Our Team page and learn a bit about those who keep our service to Jesus moving forward as we strive to honor and continue the vision that God gave to our founder, Brother Robert Dubois, and his loving wife, Sister Audrey.
Message From Our Chaplain and President
September 2023
Dear Partners and Friends,
Praise the Lord! Well as you may have noticed this year is almost gone. Soon we will be looking at the year of 2024. I would like to share a scripture with you. Matt 12:24 says, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains [just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itself alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest.
God does His work in us so that He can do His work through us. If we want God to use us as vessels to bless the lives of others, we must allow God to shape us into the vessel He desires us to be; if we want God to work mightily through us, we must allow Him to empty us of our dependency upon our own strength; if we want God to make our lives fruitful, we must allow Him to place our lives, like a seed, into the fertile soil of His love so that we do not abide alone.
As we fall into the ground and die, new life comes forth…a life that could never be known unless the seed had been broken and its life released. It is out of our brokenness that the ministry of healing and hope can spring forth to touch others. We must first be changed by His power.
If this is your will then pray,
Lord, I surrender all! I surrender all I am and all I hope to be. I release the fight, the conflict, and all that is within me that resists the good, pleasing and perfect will that You desire for me. I ask that You take my life and bury it deep within the fertile soil of Your love—hiding me away in the hidden place, unseen and unknown by the eyes of the world, under the shadow of the Almighty, under the covering of Your wings.
I ask today, that You settle it in my heart forever, that I have given You my all and You have received my surrender.
Lord, “Take my heart and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above.” Thank You for the full assurance that my life is in Your hands, that my circumstances are under Your control, that my goals are for Your glory, and that my future is in Your keeping. May the deepest part of my heart discover the deepest part of Yours—moving me away from a self-centered life to a life of love that knows no limits, away from hands that grasp to hands that release and give, away from what will benefit me to what will please You, away from clamor and striving to the peace of Your Kingdom, away from the glitter of lesser lights to the light of Your glory.
Thank You, that I am Yours and You are mine! Thank You for the joy of it, the lightness of it, the freedom of it, the beauty of it, the peace of it, the rightness of it, the communion of it, the wonder of it all.
I thank God for all of you and for your steadfastness, prayers and gifts. I pray the Lord will continue to bless each and everyone of you.

Some may know that our vice president/Minister, Dan Groves suffered the loss of his son who is also our treasurer, Pastor John Hammond's nephew. Pastor John Hammond officiated the homegoing on Sept 2nd. Please keep the Groves family and Hammond family in your prayers. God bless!
In Jesus name. Amen

Town of Hope Vision
Our brother, Robert Dubois, went home to his reward with a fire in his heart for this vision. Consider Hebrews 11:13 & 12:1. Let us continue to be counted among the faithful.
2022 is the year we hope to see our vision for the Town of Hope become a reality. Town of Hope will be a place that will house men and women who have been released from prison with nowhere to go. The Town will meet the needs of individuals by preparing them spiritually and vocationally to reenter life outside of prison.
General Fund
We minister in many Texas prisons (TDCJ) and jails, giving hope to the incarcerated (both male & female) by preaching God's Word, sharing testimonies and singing songs of praise & worship to let them know that there is hope for any and all in Christ Jesus.
Town of Hope Fund
We invite you to share in our vision for the Town Of Hope. Town of Hope will be a place that will house men and women who have been released from prison with nowhere to go. The Town will meet the needs of individuals by preparing them spiritually and vocationally to reenter life outside of prison. We understand that many of those released, have no job or industry experience and their only skills are what landed them in prison. Town of Hope will offer a way and a chance through Godliness and skills fit for the job market, to turn around their lives and head in a fulfilling and productive direction.
Van Fund
We thank God that we were blessed for a time with a new van. However, with the passing of our founder, Pastor Robert Dubois, it was most expedient to return it to the dealer. Donations made to the Van fund will be used to buy another ministry van to transport volunteers to the prisons. We are waiting on the Lord and watching for the opportunity to purchase / receive our next van.
