I am so thankful every single day for the love, and support that
you sent out to me. And the visits and prayers you provided during
my time of growth within those walls, behind the bars of E.C.P.
Your work and prayers have provided miracles in life and opened
the doors to the Church of Christ to my family and myself. I will
always share a love for you both as a sister in Christ, with
you. I will be writing to those who are still hurting as I was,
those who I can share their fears and loneliness with. Bondage
behind those walls and bars is an awful experience, and thank God
for you and your work it was my greatest joy to receive your
letters and reassurance. Since my release I have struggled with my
disease of alcoholism. But God reminds me on the days that I do
not walk according to His word, that He is my strength and help.
Without Him I could not do it on my own. I praise God for bringing
you and the Church family into my life. Thank you so much for
being here for me and for all of us who suffer- don't give up.
Your work is doing miracles although it may not always appear to
be. God knows, and so do I Thank you God, and thank you for Gene
and Shirley.
At
the age of 45 after years of crime, drugs, and alcohol, I Finally
came to the Lord, or should I say He rescued me from this horrible
life of drugs and crime. Anyway I dedicated my life to serving Him
that night back in 1983. I promised to serve him to the best of my
ability from that day forth. I am doing so by serving in the field
of prison ministry. Praise God it has been such a beautiful and
rewarding experience. God is so wonderful. To think He could love
a lowly sinner like me. Amen. Praise God. forever
in His service, Gene

I John J. Kasecky am 49 years old And before I
came to know the Lord, It was always My way. I only knew the Lord
when I needed something. I have found that the road to Satan is
very wide. So easy to be lost without Jesus. For me it was like being lost in a
forest, going up and down over the hills. I came to this path, and
looked upon it, I found that it was hardly ever used by all the
weeds covering it. I had no real idea where it was going to take
me. I was scared and was lost, I needed a true friend. I found this true
friend while I was In
prison, His name is "Jesus Christ." That unused path
lead me straight to Him and to a new life, To a whole new outlook
according to His will, Not mine, being done. I found this
path threw a prison ministry directed by Gene Platt, Praise God.
