We just concluded a three day in-prison “Marriage Seminar” at the Telford Prison in New Boston, Texas. There were twenty-seven inmate couples and eleven volunteer couples. The warden, staff, and chaplain were all very cooperative and really glad we were there. Several marriages were saved and many others strengthened and encouraged.
One of the wives said that their marriage was over, but they changed their minds because of this weekend. Several prisoners and several wives made decisions for Christ. That makes it all worth while.
A dear wife had a lot of problems getting from Amarillo to the seminar, which is near Wichita Falls. One of her problems was that the tires on her car were dangerously bad. She came anyway. At the Saturday night afterglow she asked us to pray she would make it the almost 500 miles home. The other wives instantly rallied together and raised the money to buy her four new tires with some spending money left over. What a joy to see these ladies who are in such need, become givers themselves.
