| Westside Jail/Prison Ministry is a community team of Christians working together in the Name of Jesus to effectively communicate the fact that God is indeed the author of "another chance" for all of us regardless of the mistakes we have made or the "imprisonment" in which we find ourselves. |

Comment: New Beginnings is a faith-based community support program designed to encourage you in your walk with the Lord. You're invited to bring a potluck dish and your Bible and join us for an uplifting evening!! For information call Ron and Linda at 753-0156.
Our Jail Ministry also sponsors a locally active New Beginnings Outreach Team. We have a team of ladies who do arts and crafts regularly at the Murray Group. We meet each Wednesday afternoon for various hands-on activities and on Friday nights for Bible Study and other life-skill related activities with the high-school aged girls who are residents there. We can use other interested women to join in our Outreach projects here and other places. For more information, contact Linda Wright at 753-0156.
