Thanks for learning me the word of God, while I was incarcerated at D.W.C.C. When I came to DWCC in November 2010 I was one lost person. I gave my life to the Lord while in receiving at Powhatan in October 2010. Then listening to you and our Chaplin Armstrong, I have learned a lot about my salvation. Other people who spoke at DWCC while I was or am here also spoke good about the word, but I seem to be drawn to you and our Chaplin. You can step on toes and kick them, but still be full of the word.

Hello, my brother and friend. May this letter find you in good health and spirit and well blessed by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

For the past couple of weeks, since accepting Jesus Christ as my Lord and personal Savior, I have been praying and reflecting about this moment. Honestly, I have been wrought with self-doubt, questioning if I fully understand the implications of this, if I am ready for the responsibilities and accountability that follows this profession of faith. Then I realize these self-doubts are the devil’s way of deterring me from my salvation as he has done so many times before.

When I was 6 years old one of my mom’s boyfriends murdered my older sister and put me in the hospital with a broken arm and shoulder. So the state took us away. And it just got worse.

When I heard that there was no AC in the pen, my first thought was, “I’m riding with Jesus He will provide me with a good AC job and when I got to holiday unit I was a SSI cleaning toilets. Every day I dreaded getting up and going to work. It was horrible! I got saved in the county jail and was a babe in Christ a couple of years later when I got to that transfer facility.

It’s sad, but true.
The devil took hold of me
As he has also done to some of you.
