Chaplain's Corner
Matthew 25:36, "...I was in prison and you came to me."
We have seen many changes since I came aboard in December of 2008. We have conducted two revival services; one at the Welch Facility, and one at the Stevens Facility. Ten (10) men gave their hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ during the Revival. We have seen a total of twenty men who have given their lives to Christ since 2009. We have also conducted two Water Baptisms; one at the Welch Facility in August 2009, and one at the Stevens Facility in October 2009. A total of sixteen men were baptized. We want to thank A.R.M. Ministries for donating an $ 800.00 'Collapsible Portable Water Baptistry' which was used to baptize these men.
We also want to thank the following Local Ministers for coming into the facilities to help spread the Gospel Message:
Steve Acord, Danny Anderson, Jack Bolden, Ken Brown, Charles Cox, Vickie Cox, Howard England, Bubby Falvo, William Harman, Omar & Ella Helm, Tommy Helmandollar, Jute Sizemore, Evan Webb.
Finally, I want to say 'Kudos' to ALL staff members who work at both facilities. You deserve a big applause for the teriffic work that you do!
Until next time,
Sincerly, Chaplain Dan Pruitt
