Born In Prison...Released on Valentines Day

Sie Davis was born in prison while his mother was incarcerated at the Goree Unit in Huntsville. His stepfather, was known as the "Godfather of South Dallas," and attempted to kill Sie for not carrying out a "hit." Sie went on to be incarcerated a number of times, even ending up in the same cell as his father. He was labeled by many to be nothing but a habitual criminal.

God had a different plan for his life.

Sie was released in 2000 on Valentine's Day.

He is now working at Worldwide Voice in the Wilderness as Director of Overcomers program, and has taken this ministry into over 20 different TDCJ units. The reason this story is so inspirational is because Sie was incarcerated in Texas for almost 2 decades before pursuing his ministry, but has now been free and serving God for 10 years, since Valentine's Day of 2000.

In 2007, Sie Davis was presented the Governor's Criminal Justice Volunteer Service Award in recognition of the 17,000 miles he traveled ministering to inmates within Texas. Sie received his second Criminal Justice Volunteer Award from Texas Governor Rick Perry in 2008 for his service to the TDCJ through Overcomers.



"After being born in prison and spending 17 and a half years of my adult life behind bars, God is using my

experience to help men and women to become productive citizens of society," Sie explains.

Sie Davis has turned his experience in to a working model for success as an overseer of WVIW's After Care Programs such as Overcomers, The Transitional Home, and Resident Accountability courses.
Sie uses the lessons he learned since prison to minister in as many prisons as possible in an effort to help those who are still incarcerated. It was these visits that enabled him to reconnect with and begin mentoring and developing WVIW's Director of Transitional Housing, Ed Chambers. Sie also Pastors a church that is full of ex-prisoners; who, like Sie, are allowing God to rewrite their life's story.
