Testimonies from Inmates
IN OR OUT
by Gus
Macropoulos
My name is Gus Macropoulos. I spent the last six years of
my life in jail and prison, but I was recently released. At
one point I was told I would NEVER get out of prison.
During that time I gave my life to God through His Son Jesus
Christ. When I did that I became part of a family of
Christians who would not let me give up.
One very important part of this family was the prison
ministry of LHF. The prayers of all of my Christian brothers
and sisters is why God let me go free and able to walk into
Living Hope Fellowship church seven years before my sentence
was up. Through prayer God opened the prison gates for me
just as He did for Peter in Acts 12:1-19. When I walked
into LHF church and saw all the people face to face, I knew
how Peter felt.
Now that I am out, I need your prayers more than ever. My
brothers that are still in prison also need your prayers and
love. Don’t ever stop what you are doing at LHF Prison
Ministry! God is listening to your prayers – I am proof of
that!
I
would like to thank you, not just for myself, but for all of
the inmates that you have given love, hope, and fellowship
to! God will bless you for this!
Thank
you.
Your
Brother in Christ, Gus.
PRISON PRAISE
by Sharon
Cromwell, Newsletter staff
Your prayers and support for LHF Prison Ministry are very
much appreciated. One inmate we helped has written to us
since he was released. David C. is 24. He said it was very
hard to get a job, but the Kansas City Star published an
article about him and just how hard it is for a felon to
find work. We recently received a personal letter from
David telling us that he just got a job and is training to
be a warehouse manager. He has spoken in a church and
started a pen pal ministry between that church and a
prison. David wrote, “I also want to take this opportunity
to thank you for your prayers during my incarceration. It
really meant a lot to me. I hope you are doing well and in
good spirits. Tell the congregation that I said, ‘Hello and
God Bless.’ . . . Thanks again to you and your congregation
for all the prayers and support.”
