INSPIRING HOPE THROUGH TRANSFORMATION
“You have to be the one to rehabilitate yourself. You can't depend on the prison system to do that.”—Tracey
Tracey Sims was leading a seemingly happy life. The mother of four had just gotten married to the man she loved, and her future looked bright. But she was hiding a dark secret. Ten days after her honeymoon, she was arrested for participating in the defrauding of another company through her employer. She was staring down a 40-year prison sentence.
Though she would end up serving only six years in all, it was still a long journey she would never forget.
She felt hollow just thinking about all the birthdays and family holidays she would miss. Her mind raced with doubts and fears. If her brand-new husband decided to leave her, could she blame him? If her children resented her forever, would she ever forgive herself?
Men and women in prison are looking for hope. And nothing provides hope like the living Word of God. The demand for Bibles and Christian content is at an all-time high. Will you help us meet the need? Please give generously today.
