INSPIRING HOPE THROUGH TRANSFORMATION
“We don't want to forget all the people who contributed and helped us get this far, because the smallest gestures … will mentally fuel you and keep you going” —Roxanne
There was no creative announcement or heartwarming video the day Walter Blissit heard the news that his wife Roxanne was pregnant. He was newly incarcerated. Walter and Roxanne didn’t know what parenting while separated would look like—but they were determined to make it work.


For Roxanne, new motherhood felt like drowning.


“It was a blur,” she says. “It’s the feeling of when a wave comes, and you’re struggling … you’re trying to breathe. And then when you breathe, then another big wave comes, but you’re too into it to know that you’re drowning.”


The responsibilities of solo motherhood overwhelmed her, but Roxanne persevered. She took their daughter Zoey to visit Walter as much as she could. They talked on the phone, too. Roxanne was determined that Zoey would have a good relationship with her father.
BIBLES ARE NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER
Bibles are one of the ways to get hope behind prison bars. And nothing provides hope like the living Word of God. The demand for Bibles is at an all-time high. Will you help us meet the need? Please give generously today.
