Dear John,


Happy New Year! It’s a time for new possibilities and fresh starts, and I can’t wait to see what the Lord has in store for Prison Fellowship in 2025. As they say in the Prison Fellowship Academy, we are “better than yesterday, not done yet!”


Are you a new year’s resolution person? I’d love for you to consider making one resolution about how you can further engage with Prison Fellowship in 2025. Because of friends like you, Prison Fellowship can keep paving the way to transformation, equipping the Church inside, and igniting hope in this generation of culture changers. I pray that the Church in America experiences revival as we inspire the local church to grow alongside the Body of Christ behind bars.


Here are a few ways you can get involved in the coming year:
-

Become a Restoration Partner , sustaining Prison Fellowship’s mission with your monthly giving.The Lord continues to transform the hearts and minds of those we serve, and we continue to reach thousands of men, women, and families across the country with programs you support. The numbers are encouraging, but they’re not nearly as powerful as the personal stories behind those numbers.


I think of testimonies like Eric’s. Currently in the Prison Fellowship Academy, Eric has been growing in his faith and leading a Bible study in the dorm.
As I began to grow in my faith, God gave me a sense of peace that I had never encountered before, and I wanted other men to find that same kind of peace that I now encounter daily. I also had struggled with what real love looked like and again wanted my peers to experience the real love of Jesus Christ.


—Eric
Eric said he loves sharing his newfound faith and hope, and Prison Fellowship staff have noticed an impact on the members of his Bible study. Some of the men have even turned away from their drug use.


Many new year’s resolutions are short-lived. Our program participants, however, are equipped to embrace life-changing values for the long haul. This new year holds many opportunities to continue being part of what God is doing, and it takes all of us—volunteers, churches, donors, advocates, and more—to make a lasting difference. Your
