May 2013 - Christ is Risen!
"Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen!"
"Christ is Risen from the dead, trampling down death by death and upon those in the tomb bestowing life"
Dear Friends,
We receive a good number of letters from prisoners who claim that they are falsely accused of a crime. Most of our prisoners are guilty. The point is a lot of our prisoners are at the mercy of bad legal care.
Many prisoners claim complete innocence of the crime which they "did not" commit for which they are charged. Most view these statements are just denials. We have a true innocent victim of a wrongful and false conviction. One of our prisoners is an emigrant from Greece. He is elderly and has been in prison for years, all the while saying he was innocent. He was recently found not guilty through the help of the Innocence Project. This organization offers free legal help for those who are truly innocent. He is now a free man!
"Magnify Your mercies, O You who save those who hope in You From those who rise up against Your right hand. Keep me as the apple of Your eye; In the shelter of Your wings, You will shelter me From the face of the ungodly who trouble me." (Psalm 16:7-9)
We all sin and fall short of the Glory of God. Thanks be to our Risen Lord that He set us all free for by His grace we are saved. Although we are guilty of sin, God gives us grace and mercy and true freedom.
May the beauty of heaven consume you, Fr. DavidMore Articles...
