Chaplain Hill baptized over 30 women tonight at Florence McClure Women's Correctional Center! Praise God!

Launched five week small group study on baptism.

After months of prayer and preparation, tonight at Florence McClure Correctional Center we launched Celebrate Recovery. With all of the sign up spots completely filled, 68 women joined in one room to take the next step in changing their lives forever. We could not have asked for a better night. Thank you to all of the Florence McClure Staff for making this possible. 

Tonight at Florence McClure Correctional Center, we had an amazing night. God Behind Bars brought in the band Broken Walls. A Native American group made up of four band members, from four conflicting tribes united in one by Christ. We had over 350 women from all different races and cultures in the room, and over 100 decisions for Christ. Praise God!

After many months of preparation we will be launching Celebrate Recovery inside Florence McClure Women's Correctional Center on April 28th. We have over 60 women signed up for the program. Thank you to all of the correctional staff at Florence McClure and in the Department of Corrections for their hard work in making this ministry succeed. 

We have such a great story to share with you! This last week we had received some news that just blew us away. We had a woman come up to us on Christmas Eve and tell us that she hated the thought of believing in God, that there is no God, and it just was not for her. In fact she practiced in witchcraft. But she told us she was thankful for the service, the videos we showed, and that the Christmas gifts were great. We encouraged her to come back and hang out with us because we would love to get to know her. 

We watched her continue to come back after that for the next few weeks until she started asking us questions about God. Things such as, "Why would God ever want to forgive me for what I have done?" She began to tell us her story and how she has so much blood on her hands that we would not even be able to fathom. We began to grow with her and just encouraged her to keep attending.

This last week she came to us and told us that she had written a letter to her gang that she was going to be released. She mentioned to them she would not be continuing the things of her past and that she was done with the gang for the rest of her life, from here on out, even if that meant that they would have to shoot her when she walked out the gates. They responded and told her that they respect her decision and that they are going to leave her alone. This is a miracle in itself, as most gangs would never respond this way and would in fact continue threatening former gang members until they rejoined. We were so excited to hear this news, and we started to congratulate her. "That's not all", she said. She then told us she had committed her life to Christ and that she was going to continue her walk with God by going to live with her mom who is an avid Christian whom she had not seen since she was 6 years old.

We are so excited for what God is doing at Florence McClure in the lives of the women and staff. This is just one of the many stories that we have already heard. Please keep us in your prayers as we continue this journey. We are so ecstatic for what God has done and cannot wait to see what else He has planned! To God be the glory!

Over 100 people attended the Celebrate Recovery Inside Training today. Including four Chaplains from Nevada State Prisons.

Christmas Eve was amazing! We packed out the gym for our very first service. There were so many people that the prison had to turn a lot away. We had over 150 first time decisions for Christ!!!! It was a very humbling day. We also passed out 1000 Christmas Gifts. Tears of joy lit up these ladies faces. Thank you God for everything that you are doing.

On Christmas Eve we will be launching a brand new service inside the Florence McClure Women's Correctional Center.

God Behind Bars got the green light from Nevada's director of corrections on Aug. 13 to have access to the entire states prison system. It was a huge vote of confidence for the new ministry.
