Our country is more divided than ever and now there is a war in Ukraine. So many people are under stress. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus said:…

Ron Martin4 years ago2 years ago2 mins

COVID-19 shut down access to most U.S. prisons, including the Arizona State Prison Complex – Yuma, where Shannon Gunderman volunteered with a group of Jehovah’s Witness ministers. Without warning, inmates were cut off from a robust Bible education program that included weekly Bible-based discourses, audience discussions, individual Bible studies, and video presentations. Within weeks, Jehovah’s Witness volunteer ministers visited the prison facility on a weekly basis conducting small group meetings for worship within each prison unit, and occasionally baptizing someone into the faith. When the prison facility went into lockdown in March 2020, Gunderman was determined to continue providing spiritual…
