A message from our Director…

Greetings, Coalition of Churches in Prison Ministry (CoCiPM),

I hope and pray this writing finds you in the peace and comfort of our Lord.

Allow me to begin by saying a big thank you to all the Pastors who attended the October 2025 Bi-Annual meeting at Pilgram Rest Missionary Baptist Church.

Apologies, I was not there with you.

On Saturday, November 8, 2025, will be our sixth Bi-Monthly meeting at Beth-Eden Baptist Church, where Dr. Clarence Preston is Paster.

The address is:

1125 E. Red Bird Lane

Dallas, TX 75241

Let me extend a hearty “Thank You!” for another year of servicing our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus, in the part of the vineyard. If the truth is being told, Prison Ministry is not a popular ministry. It is not in te limelight in Kingdom Building. Thanks be to GOD for those of you who answered the call into this vineyard!

Many people, even Christians, will say to those incarcerated if they committed the crime, so let them do the time. Lock them up and forget about them. There is no repentance and no redemption available for them.

Saints should be mindful that Christ has forgiven us for our sins and errors in this life. Regardless of the sins we committed, all we need to do is confess our sins, and he is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9)

Because of his forgiveness, we should be so very thankful that He wipes our slate clean from our past mistakes, debts, or wrongdoings, and we begin anew! Now that we have the victory in Him, we ought to be thankful and give Him praise!

The fact that Jesus makes us triumphant, then we, as believers, in return should redeem the time by thanking Christ Jesus always for our every victory in Him!

By reflecting this mindset and behavior, it will rub off on those whom we visit in prison. If this mindset catches on, then another will get it, and another, so on and so on. Like a small fire that gets fed more oxygen and fuel. It will burn more and brighter.

We do not have time to waste, let us redeem the time by being exceedingly grateful to our Lord for the triumph we have in Him. 2 Corinthians 2:14 says, “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savior of His knowledge by us in every place.”

Let us keep one another lifted in prayer and be grateful to Him.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.

AMEN!

Peace and Love,

Lee Brodie

Director CoCiPM
