Prison Ministry:  KAiros

This year, Kairos will be held from August 6-9 at Central Prison (CP).  Kairos is a 4-day outreach mission in Central Prison.  Forty-two residents of various faiths, men who likely will never be released, will attend.  We listen to them, love them, share our story, sing ourselves hoarse, and provide great food.  Lives are changed.  If you did not sign up to be on the prayer chain we string around the gym at CP, and would like to do that, please contact me at 643-9123, or at dannelson@bellsouth.net.  Each man on the team must provide 100 dozen, 2.5", round, handmade, sugar or chocolate chip cookies.  If you are willing to bake cookies for me to take to CP, you need to get them to me by the end of day on August 5th.  If you would like to give a tax-deductible contribution, make a check out to “Kairos of NC” and send it to me.  I'm really excited to see the Holy Spirit at work.  Thank you for all your support and please continue to pray!!

In Christ,

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cell phone.

What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?

What if we flipped through it several times a day?

What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

What if we used it to receive messages from the text?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we gave it to Kids as gifts?

What if we used it when we traveled?

What if we used it in case of emergency?

This is something to make you go....hmm...where is my Bible?

Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill.

Makes you stop and think 'where are my priorities'?

And no dropped calls!
