It just keeps happening!
One man stood up and began to share that he had walked with the Lord over 10 years ago. But he decided to begin a new “business” with two other friends; they began to run drugs across the border. After several close calls, his wife found out what he was doing and divorced him.
Then, hearing that a warrant was issued for his arrest and after crossing the border one night, he found a tract that talked about returning your life to Jesus. He promptly turned himself in. He admitted to the police that he was all they said he was. But at the same time, he asked God if there was still room for him in the body of Christ. Of course he heard a big YES!
As he began to grow again in Christ, his two “business” partners accepted the Lord. His wife not only accepted the Lord, but said she would re-marry him! What joy filled this mans heart, as he pushed back tears while praising God for what has happened. He is going to a prison that we do not go to, so we are committing him to God’s grace.

Wow, I am so thankful to read this blog. God is truly doing a marvelous work as you are faithful to Him and His Word. Oh that God would continue to teach us how to reach out to the lost. I am so thankful for your ministry. I pray some day I can come with you to see this marvelous work of God in your midst. Today when praying I am thinking of these verses to pray along side you.
Phil 1:9-11 "And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God."
Ephesians 1:15-23 "For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
