They have played a huge part in my recovery. I can’t thank you enough because these lessons give me time to focus on my Lord and Savior. I deeply appreciate it.” (He is 28.) Praise God – “Keep my commandments and live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye.” (Proverbs 7:2)! Pray Kyle works diligently, as unto the Lord, keeps on studying and finds a believing co-worker.

Yes, two weeks ago, on 2-29-24.” (This first study was mailed on 2/5/24, so she likely had it for 2 weeks and a few days before trusting in Christ. PTL!!!) Praise God – “The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!” (Mark 1:15)!

He’s in every area of my life, according to His purpose. He provides all things sufficiently, every time, in His timing.” (In 1 ½ years, she completed 6 courses with 110 lessons; she is now studying the 7th course with 16 lessons.)

Pray Maria shares her faith boldly and helps others to sign up for studies too.

Saturday, 23rd: WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU HAVE LEARNED IN THIS LESSON? Inmate Nicole H… wrote: “I learned what happens when a Christian dies.

Pray Nicole shares this gospel truth with compassion and clarity among her contacts.
