Today we had our quarterly Re:generation Directional Prison Team meeting. Really exciting the direction Re:generation is headed inside the prison walls! Chuck Adair from Re:generation, updated us on all the possibilities they are working on. Then Fuzzy (Jeff Smith) took us to lunch in the Steps Recovery limo. We had WAY too much fun. He did a great job as our driver. Traci Bishop on our team, created this little video on the way back the the center. She's amazing! Enjoy!

Heather shared a powerful testimony on Monday, January 19th. You can watch her story on our YouTube channel.

Heather found Jesus in prison. Her addictions to drugs, p**n and s*x kept her from having a REAL relationship with God. She went through Re:generation whil...

As you consider your end of year giving we would be honored if you could share some of your financial blessings with us. Our prison ministry portion of the Center is fairly costly. Plus, the inmates have no way to pay for materials. The cost to provide the Re:generation material to the Faith Based Dorm is almost eight thousand dollars!!

We know money is easy for GOD so we want to make it easy on you to give. Here's a QR code that will take you directly to our donation page on our website.

Thank you for considering Steps Recovery in your end of year giving. We love you for that!!

Well there's always the clean-up after a big event. Fuzzy and I loaded up the zillion blue totes this morning that are used to carry the Christmas Blessing Bags yesterday. Officer Jefferson was our NEW officer in charge during the delivery. She maintained a great attitude all day. 12 hours worth!! She gave all the glory to her coffee!!!! Thank you Officer Jefferson for your leadership and guidance. Girl power!!!

Thank you again to Love and Care for the use of these totes. A real blessing!!

The TEAM from Steps Recovery really shined yesterday delivering 3000 Christmas Blessing Bags. We showed them that they are not forgotten and told them GOD loved them!

We had a special guest. Darrell Morris, the black gentleman, spent years at this unit. He went through Kairos in 2013 and GOD changed his life forever. He received a degree in drug counseling and recently an award from the State for his work with the homeless. He was on a "natural high" all day seeing his old friends and passing out the same bags he received! That's a crazy story that only GOD could write!!! What a great day!!! Thank you to EVERYONE who helped us pull off this project. You are all ROCK STARS!

This morning we loaded all the Christmas Blessing Bags totes onto the 18 wheeler furnished by Dunagin Transport. Thank you to Bo Dunagin and Tom Grogan for handling this portion of the project for us. The men on the unit are SUPER EXCITED about their Christmas this Thursday. We are PUMPED! We have a great team of men from both Steps, Beltway and Kairos ready to hand the offenders their Christmas bags and tell them that GOD LOVES THEM!

What a FANTASTIC job our Christmas Blessing bag team did this morning! We had a little over 50 people show up to help. We literally went from product on the pallets, still in their boxes, to completing 2997 sacks ready for the 18 wheeler on Monday in just a little over TWO HOURS!!!!!!!!!!! Insane!!! Love and Care's CarePack system is a game changer. They helped us eliminate the cardboard boxes and paper sacks completely. Everyone had great time and their was real joy in the air.

Thank you again Love and Care Ministries for partnering up with Steps to create a stress free event we hope to continue for years to come. Matt Reynolds with Love and Care is fantastic. We can't say enough good things about his leadership and coordination today.

Thank you Beltway Park, Funeral Directors Investments and the others who gave generously that will provide the men on the Robertson TDCJ - French Robertson Unit a day of joy! There's a little JESUS in every bag!!!

Heather's testimony was fantastic. She says her "stinkin' thinkin' " kept her from being the woman GOD wanted her to be. Check out her story on our YouTube channel.

We are SO PROUD of Heather!!!

Heather says her "stinkin' thinkin' " lead her to make the same bad decisions with men and drugs over and over again. God kept pursuing her with different p...

We are SUPER EXCITED to announce that we now have a really cool website for Steps Recovery. Fuzzy has always wanted a cool, informative site that showcases ALL we do in the Big Country. We now have it. You can see EVERYTHING we do with recovery and prison ministry. I've never built a website but jumped in head first and learned all I could to produce the site.

When you're discussing Steps Recovery with others you can point them to this site and it will really explain who we are and what we do. Consider this our BUFFET of information about Steps!! Please check it out. Thanks!! Chris
