Why did you decide to volunteer inside the jails? During the pandemic, moved to Louisiana, lost access to the community. Praying, feeling isolated, God put prisoners on my heart. I started writing to prisoners, and heard that God was proving miracles behind bars. When I moved to Baltimore, God called me to the prisoners.
Is there one person/boy you have connected with? Tavon. He is consistent, a leader, and a paradox.

Comments: I am able to tell others about the boys, we need to disciple them, train them up, and love them. There are others people like me that are available to serve or have a passion but they are untapped.
