Please Consider Becoming A Volunteer

As we continue to reach prisons, we need certified volunteers that can pray, preach, and sing. We ask that you spread the word that we are in need of volunteers in your churches and when talking to friends, relatives, and acquaintances.

Becoming certified is not a difficult process which Chaplain Shelia will walk you through. Please call or write to Chaplain Shelia to let her know that you are ready to volunteer to go into the prisons: [email protected] 281-467-2410

Hope for All in Jesus Prison Outreach
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

March 2024

Dear Partners and Friends,

TI am saddened at the loss of one of our dear members, Shelia Mitchell. See comments dedicated to Shelia at the end of this newsletter.

Grace Gives You The Advantage
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:4-5). Abraham, after helping to defeat the enemies of Sodom refused to accept any compensation from the king of Sodom despite his persuasive words. In his words, "I will not take from a thread even to a shoe latchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich" (Genesis 14:23). Abraham understood that there was nothing the king of Sodom could give to him that would compare to the advantage God had given him; he had a treasured relationship with God.

Remember, you're Abraham's seed, thus even in today's world where the global economy is failing, the fact that you're a child of grace puts you ahead. No wonder the Bible says "When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up..." (Job 22:29). That's because as a child of God you have the grace-advantage; it's the power of promotion; it causes your life to move from one level of glory to another. God wants you to be conscious of the grace advantage! He wants you to know that you're the seed of Abraham, and that grace is working in you twenty-four hours a day! That grace puts you ahead and positions you for the glorious life like it did Isaac, who sowed in a time of famine, yet reaped a hundredfold harvest (Genesis 26:12-13), because grace gave him the advantage.

 


 

We sadly and joyfully announce the homegoing on February 17th, of our sister Shelia Mitchell. She will be missed by all. I personally enjoyed our drives to the Ramsey, (her favorite), unit and getting to know her. Now, she is unrestricted by an earth bound body and circumstances, and you may remember how she loves to get around. Dan Groves

I would like to say: We will all miss you Sister and we love you very very much. I’m so grateful we got to worship our BEAUTIFUL LORD JESUS together and make his name know together as he has commanded us!!! We will see you again soon as we know you are with our ABBA right now, In eternity!!! Love, your brother Jason Perez

 

Shelia Mitchell was with this ministry for a long time. When I first met her and we found out that our names were not only the same but spelled the same, I was black and she was white, we hit it off right away and would say we are the black & white twins. Shelia was the type of person when you met her it was as if she had known you a long time. She always had a smile on her face and was always willing to help in any way she could. She enjoyed going into the prisons. Her favorite prison was Ramsey Trustee and they always enjoyed her. Shelia would minister to the guys and they would be so attentive and interested in what she had to say, because she was always interesting to them. When she missed going, they would ask about her and she always asked about them and how they were doing. Shelia made a way for us to have our ministry meetings at her residence in one of the meeting rooms. Please pray for her family as they go through this time of bereavement. Chaplain Shelia Johnson

 

Shelia Mitchell and I went to the Ramsey unit a couple of times. The men in the unit so appreciated her visits with her words of encouragement. We will all miss her. Michael Weorner

 

I am extremely saddened by the passing of Sis. Shelia Mitchell but will celebrate her beautiful personality and selflessness that will live in my heart forever. No matter what personal challenges she endured, she would always display genuine kindness and compassion. She exemplified what true christianity really is and will be missed. (Mark 12:30-31 and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with thy soul, and with thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. Cassandra Campbell

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.

Projected rendering of what our Town of Hope will look like.

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

Projected rendering of what our Town of Hope will look like.

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.
