Celebrating the Gift of Jesus (by Rose Admiraal)

On Thursday, December 22, we had the privilege of worshiping with the inmates of New Life Prison Community to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. What an awesome time of celebration! We had a full band from Faith Christian Reformed Church of Pella lead us in praise and worship songs. Pastor Rick gave us a message on the Light shining in the darkness and served communion. Several inmates shared poems and testimonies of God working in their lives.  They also read Scripture and prayed. We had a record number of inmates and volunteers there that evening.  There were 125 inmates and 21 volunteers!  There were so many that we even had to get out more chairs! God is so GOOD!
