quick mini-update!

Yesterday we weren't able to get any pictures, as the Community Team was working in a women's prison facility. Cameras were left back at our "home". We had quite a day, being able to experience a glimpse of what these women are living in every day. We were able to give the same message to two different groups of inmates, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Testimonies were shared by our girls and we are confident that hearts were changed, walls were broken down, and women were impacted with seeds of faith for Christ. In addition, there were 4 women were were able to meet with that were in solitary confinement and not able to even see the light of day or ever leave their room. The director arranged a special meeting where he brought them out of their room just for us. Again, we know God was present and speaking through our words. Each group heard a salvation message and participated in a group prayer, offering for them to ask Jesus into their life and heart. To change their future TODAY and have their slate wiped clean.

The Prison Team returned to the juvenile facility and were able to deepen some conversations and relationships that were started earlier. Lives are being impacted and changed each day. Praise God!

Today we will be serving lunch to the homeless. Pray that they would see God's love and light and grace through our service and conversation.

And here are some more pictures from our first days - since we know you love them!
