Exciting Report from a WVIW volunteer

Here is a recent report from our Overcomers facilitator in the Fort Worth Federal Prison. Mike and margarete are also our volunteers of the year. they are very special people who love God and love Overcomers. This report really blessed me and I know it will excite you.


Before I start-a side note-we handed out the new Spanish books last night. The inmates who have been with us from the start for nearly 2 years now were in tears as we reminisced-

we started with the Spanish inmates not having anything in Spanish and having to join in our group of English speakers with one of them translating. I told them at that time that if they would pray that we also would unite in prayer with them for their own program in their own language with Spanish materials.
The next step forward was the first spiral bound Spanish books but still in the English speaking group.
The next step was our being able to furnish a Spanish Pastor for them so now they had their own separate meeting in their own Language with a Spanish book.
This next step finds them not having a Spanish leader but we are leading them in their own group through an interpreter BUT they now have a beautiful Spanish workbook.
They know we are working on translating the DVD's now but it will take a long time. So they are learning that God answers the desires of their hearts but sometime you have to wait for the answer.
THEY ARE THRILLED AND GREATLY ENCOURAGED AS ARE WE!
(The old timers and Mike and I just had to shed some tears at the opening of the case of the beautiful books. I told them their faithfulness to the program helped determine the need for these materials.)

Now to the business part-We started back at the prison on Oct. 21 so their are 2 reports but I will have to send them in a separate email as I have to leave for an eye appointment.
