To The Prisoners of Hope Ministries,

Hello, My name is [Jesus]. The reason 4 this letter is that I found a book called Your New Life *CL1110, And I need to tell u that it has touched me in the most beautiful way ever. I have let the LORD into my life. What I have failed to mention is...that I'm in the [location withheld] Jail. And I couldn't have found this book at a better time. I am waithing 4 sentencing. The book has 2 units. Unit one has Lesson 1 - 5, Unit two has, 6 - 10. I have completed both units 1 & 2 and would love another course of study if so possible. Please write me back if U would like 4 me to tear out the 2 unit answer sheets out of the book. I would also like to ask 4 the Hope Ministries to keep me in prayer. My next court date is June [xx], 2000 at [xx:xx] AM. Thank You.

In God's Love,
by the blood of the Lamb
and the Holy Spirit's Wisdom,

[Jesus]

I have no family in Arizona and right now the only family I have is people in the church that I was attending before coming here, as I belong to the Assembly of God in Phoenix....I'm not used to being around many people, as all my life I've been a loner as I never trusted people because the prople I use to trust are the ones who used me. I'd get to know some one and they would turn around and rip me off. So I never wanted anyone to be my friend until the Lord came into my life...

I want to give you my deepest thanks for your encouragement in my studies; and thanks to everyone at Prisoners of Hope for making this material available to me. I am learning a lot about myself and my relationship with God, and I have all of you there to thank for this....

Dear Teacher,

I wanted to share with you what I wrote after reading chapter 10 of the Gospel of John.

"I hear the voice of my Shepherd calling me and I know it is time for me to listen to His words. I was once lost and followed the wrong shepherd and was led astray from the sheepfold. I have returned to the sheepfold and follow my Shepherd's voice knowing he gives me safety and comfort that I shall live. Oh how I hear Your words now Shepherd, they're clear as day, my ears are now open, and my eyes now see. I was in the darkness but now I walk in the Light. My mind was cloudy and my heart saddened, I was a lost soul for a while. You called to me my Shepherd and took me off the path of self-destruction. I was doomed to die forever but You gave me life that I shall live forever. Thank You good Shepherd for calling to me and showing me the way to the sheepfold. I am now amongst the sheepfold and the Good Shepherd and I follow His voice."

Thank You Good Shepherd

After reading the Gospel of John and studying the testimony given, my testimony is further strengthened that Jesus is the Son of God, the Lamb of God, the Messiah, the Savior, and is one with God. As I go forward in this world, I pray that the Lord will use my testimony of Jesus to help many others come to know Him and be saved also.

In the Name of Jesus Christ the Lord
Amen

Paul
