this year! The theme is "YOU'RE NOT

ALONE". Schedule is done. Shirt design is

done, color picked. Just waiting on you!

Also don't forget Sky High on April 22. Be

CONGRATULATIONS

Bradley Lee on graduating

from the Nashville School

of Preaching! You may

contact Bradley at

615-788-2137 if you or

anyone you know wants to

participate in Bible study.

Thank You

We want to thank all who sent cards, brought food

and especially the prayers for us.

George and Ouida Polk

To each one that sent me a birthday card, I want to

thank each of you. That was so nice of you to do

that. I really enjoyed them. I can’t thank you

enough. I won’t ever forget how great you are.

May God bless each of you. Thanks again.

In Christian Love, Zola Hall

Jail News

It was an amazing time at jail last week. Captain Felts

allowed Tom & Carol Todd and Carl & Connie Wood

to be in charge of showing a movie. Three pods of

women were allowed to come. We showed the movie

War Room and had popcorn & water. Everyone

behaved and our first try was a success. Charlene

Griffin's High Set (GED) class is doing great. Pierre

Griffin teaches a Bible class on Tuesday evenings.

Carol Todd teaches parenting class and has a Bible

study during the day on Tuesday. Charlene and Carol

also assist Ms Ida Westerman with an anger

management class on Tuesday afternoon. Doug Couch

and Buddy Driver teach from Nashville School of

Preaching to 4 young men. We are really making a

difference in the lives of those we mentor. The young

lady that Carol was helping has been drug free for the 8

months she has been out, works a steady job and lives

on her own. Tom has helped a young man, Ian Stark,

who just graduated his drug rehab, and we are so proud

of both of them. Think about helping, we need you.

Bible studies, GED teachers (you don't have to be a

teacher), a re-entry teacher, anyone that has a drug

and/or alcohol background to teach programs of either

one. Believe me you will be blessed.
