BOOK NEED:

"Book Cart Ministry" at Kane Co. Jail
The Kane County Adult Justice Center in St. Charles does not have a staff Chaplain, so 10 volunteers have teamed up to provide one-on-one Pastoral Counseling, and Christian literature to the general population. On the Book Cart are Bibles, tracts, Christian Books, Bible Study materials, and devotionals.

All the Book Cart materials are donated. Currently, we have a good number of English Bibles & books, but a GREAT NEED in this vital ministry is for Spanish Bibles and books. We have many inmates who's only language is Spanish, and many more who may have some English skills, but their "heart language" is Spanish.
5th Dads' Class at Stateville Prison

We began Dads' Classes with a new group of men on Jan. 5th. Some prayer requests after their 1st class are:

Albert - for my 4 kids following my criminal footsteps (3 are incarcerated) to change!

Marcus - for grace & humility to grow spiritually; for Mom’s upcoming surgery.

Timothy - for friends, family & foes to obey God’s Word & teach their kids a better way.

Manuel - for guidance, strength & understanding that God will change me.
Anonymous - for strengthened fellowship w/ God, better relationships w/ children & loved ones.

Ray - to return to the free world as a better Dad.

Tony - to have one of my children back into my life, and not be manipulated against me.

Antoine - for Mom on her deathbed; for my “low” hope & faith to be strengthened.

Anonymous - for the health of my son, Mother, and family members.

John - for favor in Court; for better relationships with my sons & their Mothers.

Larry - to see my grandkids in person; to be a better Dad to help my kids be better parents.

Anthony - for my family, especially daughter Destiny to know Jesus as Lord & Savior.
