“My name is William Jones. I've been incarcerated here for 3 1/2 years. And today, I'm about to go home.” —William Jones
William Jones is going home. He has been incarcerated at the Carol S. Vance Unit in Richmond, Texas, for more than three years.
"I found out [I was going home] 15 days ago," he says. His prison chaplain brought him the news. "I hugged him, and we cried together. Two big, grown men standing there, crying together.”
William's parents, wife, and family wait for him outside the prison walls. "The fact that I'm not there to ... help them—it really lets me know how selfish I had been in my ways," William says. "The opportunity to get back out there—to get [the] second chance that God has given me … man! I'm without words. Speechless."
Every dollar makes a difference. With as little as $5 you can reach prisoners and their families with the life-transforming hope of Jesus. Will you give a gift today?
