SOCPM Newsletter | November 28, 2020

Greetings

I hope all of you had a blessed and joyful Happy Thanksgiving.

I have not stopped, including the number of COVID-19 case in the weekly newsletter. I just didn't feel comfortable greeting you with an ongoing rise in the number of COVID-19 cases. I've moved the weekly numbers below the newsletter greeting.

There was not a whole lot going on with prison ministry. I sent the third teaching of 'Essential Tools for Effective Bible Reading' as this week's Weekly Notes.

 With the holiday season underway, it also begins a season of loneliness and regrets for those in prison. This year will be additionally hard, with COVID-19 restricting personal visits. If you can, please pray for those who are incarcerated in general, I'd be thankful.

To Him be the glory in ALL things and to Him alone!
