“Last month we got 11-1st class stamps worth $5.06. A student (David) had gotten a $50 cash birthday gift into his prison account and wanted to tithe it to us. This month David sent seven stamps and wrote: ‘I have found it a pleasure to be a part of God’s great work. I have included my tithe for the work I do in my cell, washing clothes. It’s a way to help myself get my stamps and extra food to eat. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this ECS course program. May my eyes be opened and my ears hear. I thank God for His Breath that He has breathed into my nostrils so that I will live.'”
South Carolina – Ed Goodwin
A prisoner, Jose S. writes, “I have had a change in my life. The Lord is blessing me and has given answers to my prayers. In the place where I am, 19-20 of us believers study, worship, and pray to God daily. We meet every day at 5 PM. I have received the Lord Jesus as my Savior and in these moments I am using the time to prepare myself in the living Word of Christ Jesus so that when I get out of this place I will look for where to meet and work like a real soldier of Christ, seeking souls for Him. The decision that I made is a very clear decision of submitting myself by faith in Christ Jesus and letting Him direct my life while I live in this world. Personally, I am participating three times a week in the sermons in this small congregation. Receive many blessings on part to all the ECS personnel.”
