"Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?... there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent." Luke 15:4, 7

Prison Mission Report!

 

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

About three years ago Kevin picked up the book, "Change Your Life Biblically" in a Florida Jail. He was extradited to California for murder. For over two years he and I kept up a wonderful writing relationship. He told me how the book, "Change Your Life Biblically" changed his life. It changed his life so much that he was sending me half a roll of stamps every two weeks. Anyone that got close to him, he was sharing the teachings of Jesus and the book, "Change Your Life Biblically". It changed his life so much, the Lord just opened the jail door and let him out. He is so amazed, since, as he says, "They had the ‘goods’ on me." But God loves those who change their lives and live by the teachings of "Change Your Life Biblically". Those who support this ministry and promote it with everything they have. May you all experience the same miracles that many, many others are also experiencing: healings, financial blessings, release from prisons and jails, marital blessings, etc. The book, "Change Your Life Biblically" is truly amazing.

Hello,

I am in prison because I was bounded by Satan for some time now. All I wish to learn is the truth, nothing more nothing less. When I got your book, "Change Your Life Biblically" I could not put it down. But I didn’t get to finish it because someone stole it from me. I have no money.

James, CA

 

Brother Ronald John,

Thought I’d write a little. Just received this month’s newsletter. I appreciate it, and I like the volunteer missionary view. I do believe that the Spirit of God is upon Jesus Christ Prison Ministry and that nothing will be able to stop the truth of your book from reaching people. I do believe that the Spirit of God will pierce the hearts of His true worshippers and continue to provide the means necessary to distribute "Change Your Life Biblically". It truly jump started and had a lot to do with me rededicating my life to obeying the One true living God. I’m trying to sew seeds in here and your work book is definitely a heart check. I think the workbook is a great tool. I’ve searched the Scriptures concerning the Sabbath and want to obey all God’s commands. It doesn’t surprise me that the world and its churches have changed the Sabbath to accommodate themselves. I know that some observe the Sabbath on Saturday. I use to think they were nuts and had it wrong. Only to find out that I had it wrong. I’m looking forward to hearing from you and appreciate your labor in the Lord. I can assure you that it’s not in vain. God’s word does not come back void. 17,900 inmates will testify to that.

Anthony, NV

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

I was introduced to your book, "Change Your Life Biblically" through another inmate here in prison. It is my request to ask for one of your books. I am seeking a closer relationship with Jesus Christ and a better understanding of God’s Word.

Robert, CA

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

A brother by the name of Rex told me about JCPM. I thought that’s just what I need. This is my first term ever. I’m only 19 and no one is never to young to start the Word. I have 5 years to do and hopefully my last. So I’m requesting the workbook, "Change Your Life Biblically".

Ulises, CA

 

Dear Sir,

Presently I am here in prison on the island of Saipan, very near to Guam, USA. Please do send me the above mentioned book or books. Thank you all in advance for your cooperation.

John, Saipan

 

Ron,

I thank you for helping all us who are lost to the truth. I wasn’t sure that I would be able to send you 10 stamps at first. But then I was blessed by God because my roommate saw that I needed 10 stamps. After a while my roommate just gave me 10 stamps and a stamped envelope so I could get your book. Well, I thought that I would share this miracle with you.

Nick, FL

 

Brother John,

I’m so glad to hear from you my brother. I will like to enjoy your Bible course. I also would like to receive your books and learn about the truth and truth only. But I have one problem. The problem is that I don’t have no funds or stamps to send you. I really want to enjoy your Bible course and your reading material. So is there a way you could help me out brother John? Could you also send me some forms to pass them out?

David, CA

 

Dear Ronald John,

Mrs. Juanita has expired. She was one of our residents at this nursing center. Our nurses’ manager threw this prison ministry issue in the waste paper basket. I was impressed to take it out. I took it home and read it. I have a burden for prison ministry. Yes, I will help with a check monthly. I’m a widow and raising my fourteen year old grandson. I will send what I can. I want others to find the peace I found in knowing Jesus as my special Friend. I can come to Him with all my cares. He is always there. If you think I can encourage some one, please send me a pen pal list.

Joyce, FL

 

Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

I am trying to stay on the path of righteousness. About 8 years ago I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Then last year I make a mistake and started back with the old friends. I allowed myself to believe I could handle things myself, without the Lord. Well, as you can see, I’m in prison again.

Donald, CA

 

Hi There,

My name is Andrew. I am writing to you to see if possible that you could send me the book, ‘Change Your Life Biblically"? A friend of mine got one of your books. That’s where I got your address from. So please with all do respect, I hope you answer my request.

Andrew, CA

 

Hello,

I am an inmate. I found out about your ministry from an inmate friend of mine. I’m interested in your prison ministry and was wondering if you could send me any reading material or study guides. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

John, CA

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

A fellow Christian brother here on the yard showed me a copy of the book, "Change Your Life Biblically" which he obtained through your ministry. I am interested in obtaining a copy for myself. I will be locked up 3 years this month and it has taken quite a toll on me. I turned 45 years old in January. I still have seven years remaining on my sentence.

Kevin, CA

 

Dear Brother in Christ,

I am in the devil’s castle at the moment. A friend of mine loaned me a book. It’s called, "Change Your Life Biblically". I went through it real quick. There is a lot of subjects I would like to study. I would like to ask if I can please have a copy? I have been doing the wrong things all my life and I know I’ve got to get right before it’s too late.

Roy, CA

 

To Whom It May Concern,

One of my cellmates received this brochure and so I decided to send it. Would you please send me the book, "Change Your Life Biblically". I would really appreciate it. I am just beginning my journey with Christ and some times it is hard for me.

Sharon, LA

 

Dear Reader,

I read about your free book, "Change Your Life Biblically". I received your information from another inmate but he did not have your order form. I would really like to read this book.

David, CA

 

Hi Brother,

Most of my family said they received the books. I am waiting for responses from the rest. You know how it is, life is busy. Tony said that the first 11 pages of the book answered three of his lifelong questions. I have half of the questions done.

Michael, FL

 

Dear Sir,

My sister has been in prison for eleven years. A friend of mine gave me your address and told me about the book, "Change Your Life Biblically". Can you please mail her a copy? I am enclosing a check for $10. Please let me know if it’s more. Thank you so much. Keep up the good work. May God bless you all.

Jayne, LA

 

To Whom it may Concern,

My husband requested one of your books named, "Change Your Life Biblically". He is in jail. He asked me to send you a check and we would greatly appreciate it. I would like for you to be praying for us. He has had some accusations made against him that are not true. We are praying for him to be released and home soon. Thank you.

Stephanie, GA

 

Dear Ron,

I just wanted to let you know that I’m doing just fine here because of God’s help. Brother Ron, I’m sorry because it’s been 2 months that I don’t write you about what I’m doing here. Ron, the book, "Change Your Life Biblically", I let my brother here to read your book. We all enjoying reading and they want your book. I told them that they need to write to you. I give them the flyer to write you. I’m hoping that they wrote you. I need more flyers so please send more. Ron, I’m enclosing this letter with 20 stamps to help your Jesus Christ Ministry group. I am doing 13 years so please pray for me and my family.

Rio, CA

 

Brother Ron,

I got a prison mission report from you yesterday at mail call. Thank you for that. I got my copy of "Change Your Life Biblically" a couple of weeks ago. I must say that I am really enjoying reading it. It is vary informative. I am sending you some stamps. It’s not much I know, but my family is really struggling and I don’t get much money at a time. I wish I could do more to help you spread the good news. I will do what I can when I can.

Mark, LA

 

Dear Brother Ronald,

First and foremost, let me send my love and respect. Brother, I am writing you today about your workbook called, "Change Your Life Biblically". I am very thankful for another chance to change my life for the better. I am totally indigent right now. I am not asking for free handouts, but a loan until the Lord blesses me with something to pay for the workbook.

Clinton, CA

 

Dear Brother Ronald John,

I am writing you in order to let you know that I am totally indigent and I have no one sending me any funds. I have seen your work and it’s very educating. Things that I’ve never known before are in there in your first volume. Another brother in Christ who has one and is working on it diligently. Brother John I appreciate your enlightenment and I hope you decide to let me walk down this path with the Lord and you. I’ll continue to work on this end though, to try and encourage other brothers to get involved in Jesus Christ Prison Ministry.

Robert, TX

 

Ron,

I just thought I’d write a express some of the thoughts that go through my mind. Sometimes it’s hard to talk to people who don’t truly understand God’s Word, and don’t want to understand. Sometimes I feel people almost have to go through a situation like this where their only hope is the Lord if they want to truly understand. Hopefully we can get across to people how important it is to gain true knowledge of the Lord without experiencing a situation like this. It’s too bad I was too blind to see before. I had so many indications of His goodness. I guess like many people I didn’t recognize them. I can only thank the Lord that He didn’t give up on me. I look back to when I was young. The Lord blessed me with a lot of athletic ability. Peer pressure got to me when I was about 14-15. Partying, drinking smoking pot, women. I just kind of snubbed my nose at the talent He had given me instead of improving on them. I really liked the way you explained about the Lord’s grace. I came to a good understanding. I can even see a good example in my murder case. Originally they wanted to give me the death penalty, but by the Lord’s grace they took it off the table. This gives me the opportunity to grow in knowledge and a chance to learn. It’s an opportunity I can’t let slip by. I’m determined to learn and to live by everything truth of His Word. It’s troubling that I know family and friends are being deceived. I write to them and try to explain, but I don’t think they truly understand. After all, I’m the one locked up. They have got their freedom . . . so they think.

Peter, IL

 

Dear Brother Ronald John,

I would like to thank God for blessing you with the faculties to recognize His calling for your life. And your aid to us that are incarcerated all over this world. A lot of times we have been counted out and forgotten. But I know that God has not forsaken us. Brother John, I’m not totally indigent, but being that I rarely receive money, I’m always in need. I will make a commitment to pay the 10 stamps in payments, installments.

Houston, TX

 

To Whom It May Concern,

I would like to have one of your workbooks. A friend let me read five pages of his book and I really liked it. I also want to thank you for sharing the Word with the inmates. Keep up the good work.

Gilimete, OR

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

I got the word from a friend of mine that you can help me on my spiritual walk. Excuse my format. I rarely write letters. I was wondering if "Change Your Life Biblically" rings a bell. I am 22 years old and I want to make a positive change in my direction. I need as much assistance as I can get.

Willie, CA

 

Dear Fellow Servants for Christ,

We would like to request copies of "Change Your Life Biblically". We only have a library copy right now. We share it. But now that we know we can each have a copy, we are so grateful. Thanks for your ministry.

Tyra, Lori, Mandy, Cassie, Christy, Debra: UT

 

Dear Prison Ministry,

I was reading a pamphlet about a book that a brother wrote while he was in prison. I hear it is an inspiration to a lot of prisoners. Could you please send me a copy or some Christian material so that I may grow in God’s Word? I’m serving a life sentence and I believe God wants to use me in here to reach out to those who are in the darkness and bring them into the Light. I see this place as a field where the seed needs to be planted.

Robert, CA

 

Hey,

What a great thing to see an ex-con bearing fruit. I’d love to help your ministry any way I can. Don’t rip on the book, I’m broke. I’m just so eager to serve our precious Lord. Let me know if I can help and send the newsletter please.

Frank, CA

 

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

May God bless you in your ministry. I got your address from a Christian brother. I am very interested to write you. Let me tell you about myself. I am an evangelist in Ethiopia. Many people come into the Kingdom of God. But there is spiritual problem because of lack of knowledge. I humbly request you to send me your books from your ministry to distribute for others. I hope you will help me to grow my spiritual life and my ministry.

Seble, Ethiopia

(We are still waiting for $50,000 so we can print new books and send these "old" books over seas to the almost 40 names and address who are requesting them. Please, I pray that your hearts will be touched to give all in your power to help us. God bless you and thank you for your love and support of this little ministry. You may have noticed, we had to dip into savings to pay down our operational debt. Just not enough funds coming in. Please help.)

 

Dear Brother John,

I am writing to you about your program. I can say, yes brother, I am indigent. I’m serving 2 life sentences in the Texas Death Row unit. My wife and kids left 5 years ago and my mother has just died. Father is nowhere to be found. I hope you can see the need of fellowship and the desire to serve the Lord.

Keith, TX

 

Brother Ronald,

I got your letter and my photo back and the copies. Thank you brother Ronald. Also for putting up my web site. Thank God I came across your study. There is so much division here in the prison church. There are so many problems. I stay focused on Jesus and the "Change Your Life Biblically" study to keep on track. Lots of praying. I tell whoever listens about the Lord and your ministry. I’m with you brother. Also, I’ll try to get some more stamps for you or a li’l money order. My resources are few. I hope the Lord sends some pen-pals. I’ve been here so long it would be nice to write other Christians out there.

Richard, CA

 

Dear Brother Ronald,

I found a smile on my face as I read your letter on how "they" had their spies watching you. Because I know there are spies watching me too. They spread false rumors and I catch them talking about me behind my back. Also, they pull away people I talk to and I could see the anger in them as they see our group getting bigger. Especially when they see brothers that used to join their groups before. Truly they are like vicious wolves in sheep’s clothing. Some of the leaders in their (Christian) group, when I extend my hand to shake theirs, they won’t do it. Such hatred towards me. Now I know they have no Christ-like love in them. Well, it was such a pleasure talking to you, sort of speaking, I don’t know why I don’t do this more often. I love you brother and I respect all that you tell me.

Timmy, CA

 

Hey Brother Ronald,

Do you remember me writing you from jail? I have your last letter dated 9-2005. I NOW would like to sign up for the "Change Your Life Biblically". I have enclosed the required amount of ten stamps to sign up for your Bible study program. I still hope it’s ten stamps. I thank you for your time in this important matter.

Michael, CA

 

Ron,

Thank you for the letters, book, web page and everything. You help me a lot bro. The fact you are at all mindful of prisoners is commendable, brother. That is what I wanted to say. Many men like myself lost everything on account of our disobedience. I am trying to focus primarily on the Lord, His will and to walk in the Spirit. I contended with severe bitterness and bouts of depression till I read the book you wrote. Now I understand that Satan wants to kill us. Only through obedience can we maintain the protective covering of the Spirit. God is good in that He makes paths where there seems to be no others. You said, now I am a missionary. Before I was the possessor of a $10 drug bag. I will look at this four year sentence as more of an opportunity to serve rather than a forced punishment. I will keep you updated from time to time and when God permits I will sponsor the ministry with what I may.

Travis, CA

 

JCPM,

Thank you so much for believing in me and encouraging me on the right path. Lately everything has been going well even my health. Even though I do struggle to keep my mind from worldly things. One thing for sure: after reading your book I can never go back to the way I was. My eyes have seen true, untouched knowledge. After this trip to prison I can say I did learn that there are people like you who want us to make it. So, believe when I say you’ve helped me a great deal.

Scottie, FL

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

I am serving a fifteen year sentence here. Your book, "Change Your Life Biblically: was given to me yesterday by another convict. I haven’t been able to put it down. I just would like to thank you for putting your time and effort to create a book like this. I would love to have any more reading material you might have. May the Lord bless you. He has surely blessed me with your book.

John, CA

 

Dear Brother Ronald,

I have been lucky to have come across a few of your pamphlets and I have read and enjoyed them, especially in what our Father God has been doing for your readers.

Jack, CA

 

To Whom It May Concern,

I am an inmate who happened to read a little of your book. My neighbor has a copy of the book, but I never get a chance to really sit down and read it because everyone wants to read it. I read the part about "churches" and it really moved me the way you broke it down and backed it up with Scripture. I would like to receive my own version of the "Change Your Life Biblically" book. I have no money, but maybe it would be possible to send one to me.

Ronny, CA

 

Dear Sir,

Someone shared with me your exiting publication, "Change Your Life Biblically". I would very much like to read more. I understand you have since added volumes II & III. Please forward those to me.

Christopher, CA

 

Dear Jesus Christ Prison Ministry,

I want to thank you for the monthly newsletter you sent me. It’s very inspirational. I have no doubt that your book is touching a lot of lives and changed them. I have distributed the pamphlets you have sent me. I find myself telling people about what I have learned from your book and encouraging them to send away for it. I still owe you 4 stamps for my copy. As soon as I get them I will send them. I am almost done reading my book for the second time. I hope I can complete the test in the back. I tried after I read it the first time and had to stop cause I have a bad memory. I am praying that I can complete it this time. If not, I will read it again until I can.

Nicolas, CA

 

Brother Ronald John,

The reason I’m writing is because I’m constantly under attack by men or other religions who are always trying to discredit the Bible. I usually find the answers but I’m not a theologian and some answers are hard to find. I noticed that since I put faith into actions I’m doing a lot better. Walking in love and obeying God’s Commands, including the Saturday Sabbath have taken many blessing-blockers out of my life. My prayer request is that many others receive the same blessings that come from God by learning the truth in your book; which is being true commandment keeping Christians. Not hearers only... The book took the blinders off of my eyes.

Anthony, NV

 

Love in Christ,

 

Ron

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
