WVIW Marriage Seminar Update: Darrington Unit


Worldwide Voice in the Wilderness along with with 16 volunteers from all over the state just finished up a great weekend at the Darrington Unit in Rosharon, Tx. They spent this past weekend ministering, teaching, and getting to know the 20 wives and 20 husbands who signed up for this weekend's WVIW Marriage Seminar.

There were many breakthroughs and several people prayed a prayer for Salvation. The meeting was a huge success and everyone who went came away positively impacted.

"It was exceptional! The work of the Holy Spirit was stronger than ever!" Betty Moffitt
A WVIW Marriage Seminar is one of the best ways we have found to showcase God's Grace and Love in a very meaningful and practical way. Our aim is to create an environment in which our attendees can encounter God through facing their feelings & learning how to communicate them with their spouses. We spend our weekend in prison teaching very simple truths and at the end EVERYONE comes away with something they can use in their lives forever! Here is what some of the attendees had to say from the Darrington Unit…

"[I] realize that I need to make some serious changes within myself" – Marriage Seminar Husband
"You are amazingly insightful. The seminar is more powerful than ever" – Marriage Seminar Volunteer
"Thanks for being there to support me & encourage us in our Marriage" – Marriage Seminar Wife
"My Group leaders were loving and straight forward. They really ministered to our group" – Marriage Seminar Wife
One of our first time WVIW Marriage Seminar Volunteers was Nancy Frampton, a long time office volunteer of WVIW and weekly Prison volunteer, had this to say about the Marriage Seminar…

"It was amazing to watch and listen as about 80% of the couples came forward and spoke to each other publicly.  I can tell you there were many tears from the couples who spoke and from us who watched and listened.  The week-end was all about the inmates and their wives. The Holy Spirit filled the room and our hearts the whole time.  God is an amazing God and His presence was such a joy to feel and see."
Worldwide Voice In the Wilderness would like to Thank all of our volunteers and financial partners; You make this type of weekend possible. Together we have been able to make God available and accessible this weekend. Please continue to pray for our Volunteers and our attendees that as they integrate back into their daily lives this week, and that they will continue to hold on to this experience and will utilize what they learned this past weekend in their everyday walk.

We want to also thank Sante Fe Christian Church for their help and assistance with providing food for the weekend, and Grace United Methodist Church for providing food after each day's session and for hosting our afterglow meetings.
