No one really knew what to expect as we ap proached the gate for the first time, but as time went on everyone began to relax as we marveled at the great work that God was doing with these inmates. Through the lives of our brothers- behind-bars, God has shown us that when a per son places his/her life completely in the hands of the Lord, there is no circumstance in which he/she cannot live victoriously. God has done a great work in this ministry and will continue to do so long after we have gone. — Wayne Cagle

Joel and 1thank God for the opportunity to hold a Sunday service in Spanish for the maximum security prison at Comstock, New York. It is our ministry to nelp organize and present a message to about 20-30 men. We thank God for a Chaplain who knows our Lord. It was his enthusiasm for the Lord and the men that opened the doors for this ministry. Due to our youth, many of the security officers were hesitant to fully ac cept our ministry. However, as the ministry produced a positive testimony their confidence was soon won. We struggled throughout the year in our dealing with the many incorrect doctrines that were in the prison; but the men were open and receptive to our teaching. Many were good testimonies to God’s grace. One of the thrills we experienced this year was when our assisting officer and nis family were saved at Snow Camp. What a victory for the ministry. Praise God for the many brothers who grew through i this service. Pray for them and that God will raise up new workers in next year’s class for this work to continue. — Greg Hopwood
