Beyond the prison walls.



Our work ministering in the youth prisons continues going strong! Every week we see gates opened and boys hungry to learn more about God, a God who cares and forgives, and a God who loves and wants to know them individually!

A few weeks ago we were in Oitão Preto, the community we work in, and met one of the boys we'd been discipling in prison. With great excitment he took us to his home where we meet his pregnant girlfriend and various other family members. It was great to be able to continue the work we started in prison with him. We pray and hope that through him, not only his future will be changed, but also his whole family can be impacted. To be able to follow up the boys when they leave prison is something which has been on our heart for a long time, and it seem like God is now showing us the way forward. Remember this boy, and also the workers and work in prisons in your prayers.
