Swannanoa Correctional Center (women's unit)

Tamara Jarvis reports:

Lots of snow and ice didn't keep 24 women from meeting to worship Jesus
yesterday at Swannanoa Correctional Center, a minimum security women's
prison in Black Mountain, NC. We go to this particular facility the first
Sunday of each month, so it is a blessing to see familiar faces and how they
are growing in the Lord.
Team leader Perry Shaw brought Brenda Cathey, Lori Smith, Lisa Harvel
and Martha Moore. Martha and Brenda ushered in the presence of God in song.
Lisa shared a powerful testimony of God's healing from rape and abuse, and
delivered a message to "press in and press on." The ladies were deeply
ministered to, with more than half coming for personal prayer and ministry
at the close of the service.
We return next month on March 7.
