Don't know how many of you remember a post I did on the guys in the jail my husband is in not having basic hygiene items if they can't afford them.
Well, all it took was one call to a prison ministry, a letter to the head guy at the jail, and a letter to the State dept. of health.
My husband told me last night that now the guys that have no money on their books get a "care package" of sorts from the prison ministry. They contain travel size hygiene products, a toothbrush, and even 2 meter stamped envelopes! Of course the prison ministry includes scriptual tracks with each of these.
Isn't this great!! I'm just amazed at what a few letters and phone calls and lots of prayer will do!
