Christ In You,
The Hope of Glory

To our friends and partners,

I pray that everyone has lights and water and that none are suffering from burst water pipes. I also pray that no one has lost a loved one during the freeze. If so, please let us know so we may pray for you and your family.

During the freeze and blackouts, I was reminded that we must fully put our trust in God and Him only. I have taken everything that we have been through and going through as a lesson to lean on, and depend on, God believing that He will bring us through it all.

If anyone because of the freeze needs help, please don’t hesitate to let us know. We may not be able to fix a burst pipe, but we can serve a warm cup of coffee or tea or a hot meal with a smile. I know a few of our members had busted pipes and are getting them repaired.

I wanted to share this article, Inside Frigid Texas Prisons: Broken Toilets, Disgusting Food, Few Blankets, by Keri Blakinger, who was formerly incarcerated and now writes on prison systems for The Marshall Project and various news agencies.

NOTE: We at Hope for All in Jesus Prison Outreach do not necessarily endorse all the statements in the article or assign blame for the conditions highlighted here. We pray for all those involved and affected by these conditions, that those who have the means to make the improvements needed will do so to the best of their ability and by God’s Grace.

Saints we really need to pray.

• Pray for the wardens, the guards, the inmates, and their families that are going through this trauma.
• Pray for the prison ministry.
• Pray that we as volunteers will be able to go in and minister to these souls that they may receive Jesus as their personal Savior.
• Pray for the ones coming out that they will have a place to call home when they are released such as the Town of Hope.
• Pray for the Town of Hope which is so very much needed at a time like this.

Please continue to give to the vision of the Town of Hope. We did not make our goal of $30,000.00 in the time allotted but they are working with us as we continue to raise the money needed.

We still have the land that was donated for the Town of Hope, Praise God, so that’s a blessing. We need you and can’t do this alone.

This is a team project, not a one-man project. Everyone is important and essential. You may not be able to give monthly maybe you can give a one-time donation.

However the Lord leads you to give, we appreciate you. I pray that everyone has lights and water and that none are suffering from burst water pipes. I also pray that no one has lost a loved one during the freeze. If so, please let us know so we may pray for you and your family.

Thanks,
