1 Hope in Jesus Ministries October 2017 Sharing hope with those impacted by incarceration Hebrews 6:19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast Hello Friends, Welcome to a ministry where the gospel is preached openly and where biblical life lessons are taught to those impacted by incarceration. GOOD NEWS!! Hope in Jesus Ministries now holds the chaplaincy contract for the Minimum and Medium facilities of the Adult Correctional Institute. The chaplaincy contract affords us the opportunity to strengthen Hope in Jesus Ministries current work minister to inmates and their families on a more individual basis partner with additional volunteers and ministries and provide solid, biblical leadership. We are glad to share this news with all of you as an additional reminder of God s faithfulness to us and to efforts we make for God s kingdom work. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this newsletter and to share it with a friend! Sharing His Hope, Pastor Tony Hope in Jesus Ministries, Director and Chaplain If you are new to Hope in Jesus Ministries, please visit our website for more information.

2 Thanks to everyone who attended the ministry meeting on July 8. Your feedback and encouragement is vital to the day-to-day operations of the ministry. We appreciate the Artic Mission s willingness to lend us space for the meeting. Thanks, also, to Thomas DeChauny and Paul McGowan for your service as board members.

3 FROM OUR MINISTRY PARTNER IN NIGERIA Thanks for one of the best news I had this year (that the ministry will send us back to Nigeria with curriculum and Bibles). By the way, we are graduating two classes next week - a total of 25 inmates. We thank GOD for the enthusiasm. Joseph Ali

4 INMATE TESTIMONIES I feel like the class was helpful because it brought me a little closer to God s Word. I pray a lot so it felt good to be in a class like this. I think that God has a stronger hold on my life I have a little bit better understanding of the Bible now -Inmates enrolled in Learning to Live classes VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT The last day of class was encouraging because all 10 ladies shared and prayed for each other. I believe that every lady desires to follow Jesus Christ will continue to pray for one another and seek a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. -Learning to Live Class Facilitator To learn more about becoming a prison ministry volunteer, please visit our website: GET INVOLVED

5 Upcoming Ministry Needs We are grateful for the DOC contract as it is very important in funding a portion of the chaplain s salary. Our goal is to raise the balance of the operational budget through fundraising. Donations allow us to purchase curriculum and Bibles, support the chaplaincy, help those in need with benevolence gifts, and purchase special event and administrative supplies. For example, in preparation for Christmas, we need funds to purchase cards for 1,000 inmates to send to their families at this special time of year. Your donation will go towards blessing families this holiday season and beyond. Please take a moment now to donate as you are able. Your gift will go a long way in helping us share Hope this Holiday season.

6 We appreciate the time, talents, and treasures you contribute to the evangelical work being accomplished in Rhode Island. Your gifts go towards supporting the gospel ministry and practical services that deliver hope to children, wives, mothers, and fathers impacted by incarceration. Please invest today! NEW DONORS, please consider giving to keep these ministries going. CURRENT DONORS, you are making a difference in the lives of inmates and their families! Thank you for your continued support.
