I was in Prison

So I have started yet another in the series “The Face of Love” and I wanted to show you. This is called “I was in Prison and you visited me” and Samantha and I are the models for this. I have a special place in my heart for inmates because of the 2 years that I spent visiting one particular one while living near a prison in Monroe, WA. His name was Duane and I spent many Sunday evenings with him. Together we started a pen pal website to bring others to “visit” inmates and it was called Faith to Faith Friends. While it was online for about 4 years, we helped over 300 prisoners hear from someone they otherwise would have never been able to meet. Each inmate had their photo and a brief discription of themselves along with an address so people could write to them. The website got over 200 unique visitors every day and many people were blessed. That was all sparked by having the guts to make a new friend who was behind bars and wanting others to have a chance to find hope. What can you do to give hope to someone else this week? There is a near-by long-term care facility with a grandparent who has a story to tell you…
