Message from the Founder
I pray that you are doing well! I wanted to thank those of you who have joined our MORE MONDAY Bible studies on Monday, 8PM eastern on Youtube and Facebook. We are having so much fun diving in God's Word together and learning how to have victory even in the difficult seasons of life. Last night I shared about God's faithfulness during our adoption process of our two children, Dalton and Ivy. If you missed it, you can click on the image above to view. I think it will encourage your heart!
The COVID-19 quarantine has provided many opportunities for our prison ministry to expand and reach 1000s more with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. People may not be able to physically go into prisons now, but Victorious Living Magazine can! And as inmates read our magazine, they meet the author of life, and giver of hope—Jesus.
Everyday our post office is flooded with letters from new inmates searching for answers, hope, and fellowship. Our correspondence team is faithful to answer each letter personally as well as provide Bible-based devotions, and our magazine to each inmate. And when the inmates are released, we will be there to connect them with our partners who can help with transition!
Thank you for helping us deliver hope and the Good News of Jesus! More than ever we need your support.
Last week we printed and mailed Victorious Living to over 250 prison facilities nationwide. We are believing God will provide the $25,000 needed for those magazines and are also moving forward creating our bi-lingual, expanded edition that will be published in July. We sense God saying "go and expand, and reach both English and Spanish speaking inmates," so we move forward in faith.
Your support will make all this possible! Every $1 sends in a magazine and every $1 impacts multiple lives! Up to 10 inmates read each copy, so this issue alone has the potential to impact over 500,000 lives!

Ministry Impact
Incarceration is a journey our family never thought we'd walk, and at times knowing my husband is behind prison bars is too much to bear. When I called the Victorious Living's team, I was met with compassion and love. Connecting with people who understand our family's situation has encouraged my heart and given me the strength and support I need to face the uncertainty of each day. I am a part of the VL family now, and I look forward to connecting other families who are walking through incarceration to find support through VL, too!
