Inside Out

The men inside the prisons I visit are overflowing with enthusiasm for this project and have taken on their own efforts. At CSP-SAC the chapel falls silent every Tuesday about 7:30 and the groups gathered open their hearts to receive our prayers very purposefully. Those that participate speak about the glow that descends upon them. At Old Folsom individual men are gathering their peers from all faith traditions to collaborate in spreading the word amongst their friends. At CMF-Vacaville a similar effort is underway and versions of the pamphlet might get written from different faith perspectives, word is starting to reach out through families in the visiting room and to local churches. Awesome!
