Greetings Friends and Ministry Partners,
I trust each of you had a Blessed Christmas and are looking forward to a Great and Prosperous New Year.
The past two months have been busy meeting and planning for upcoming year, but we have witnessed God working to change hearts and mend broken families. We conducted four seminars during the past two months, with one being in conjunction with Forgiven Ministry One Day with God Camp. We witnessed twenty-six individuals pray to receive Christ and fifty-four more renew their walk. Our Holistic Hardware Class number 3 at Kershaw Correctional Institutions graduated on December 20th.
The Bible Study at Avery Mitchell Correctional Institution is growing. The new class study starting January 9th will have twenty-five participants. We have seen God do some awesome stuff the past year with two hundred eighty-seven coming to faith in Christ and another hundred sixty-three renew their walk with Him. All the PRAISE goes to HIM!!!
I want to thank you for your prayers and support for 2012 to help us reach the men and their families with the Gospel through Seminars and Life Skill Classes. I realize we could do nothing apart from God, but I also know He uses people and each one of you have helped make this possible through Him.
As we begin to look at 2013 and the opportunities God is bringing our way I am going to need your support even more. Please pray and seek God’s will for what He would have you do in 2013. If you intend to make an end of the year donation, would you prayerfully consider Blue Ridge Ministries?
We are still in need of one hundred individuals to commit to fifty dollars each month or fifty who would commit to one hundred dollars a month through 2013. This need is in addition to the present support we now have. This will help us reach our budget for 2013 and be able to provide the material necessary for the training provided through Blue Ridge Ministries.
You can check the website at www.blueridgeministries.org for ways to give and for a schedule of upcoming events.
Board Members, Thanks for your faithful support and service.
In His Service,
Jim Williams
So shall My word be which goes forth from My
mouth;
It shall not return to Me empty,
Without accomplishing what I desire,
And without succeeding in the matter
for which I sent it. NAS
