Freedom Behind Bars
God has shown his amazing grace and mercy to women incarcerated in the Montgomery County Correctional Facility in Clarksburg. These women are waiting to go to court, transitioning to prison, the prerelease center or home. They come from various ethnic and socio economic backgrounds, different age groups and different levels of the knowledge about God. But all come with a need to experience the transforming power of God in their lives; and when we pray, He shows up. I am so grateful that God has allowed us to lead some to Christ for the first time, to help them endure the challenges of being locked up and the agony of being away from their families, especially their children. God is inspiring them to have hope for the future. We continue to correspond with some that have moved on to other institutions and some that have gone home and have come to church. Praise God for his awesome transforming work.
