Had another fantastic time of ministry tonight in the Durham County Jail. I had around 20-25 guys. The most sincere guy in there told of how he was in for his 76th time. Can you imagine that. He told me that just after I refered to people getting out then going back in and how that relates to......
Proverbs 26:11 - As a dog returns to his vomit a fool returns to his folly.
This inmate also asked me to call his father and talk with him which I did. His father was very thankful when I told him that I would be glad to work with him and try to help him when he gets out. Another inmate asked me to call his dad too who is a preacher. I talked with him also. They both thanked me for ministering and offering to help their sons. Pray for Eldon & Daryl.
I ministered to them on the fact that JESUS was the only one that was going to change their lives. As we have always done I ministered on being a TRUE CHRISTIAN and not being a fake that just shows up for church then never walks the walk.
Most of them had already heard about Eileen. She is even missed in the jails. The staff also really misses her. One lady that ministers with another group asked where Eileen was and I told her that she was with Jesus! She was so surprised but rejoiced because of where she is at.

Pray that fruit would begin to appear from the jail!!! I pray in the precious name of JESUS that inmates will come out and be part of this ministry!! It was so nice tonight after preaching a tough message to them to have nearly every one come up and shake my hand and thank me for being there. It is such a blessing to be able to minister there!
