Prayer Request

Harriet is doing better each week. Thank you for your prayers and support. I have an additional prayer request.

Most of you know of or know our son Daniel. Third son and at age of 17 he went terminally stupid. He used a gun and robbed a liquor store. This June he will have been in prison for 17 years. Because of the Bill # SB260 that was past last year they are reviewing all the people that were juvenile when they committed a crime and sentenced as adults. They must have served a min. of 15 years. He falls into this category.
His Parole hearing is this month on the 14th. I will go to the prison to testify on his behalf. I am a big proponent against crime and my prayer from the beginning has been,  "Lord keep him in there as long as need be, so he will never have to go back." 
After he had been in prison for a few years he repented. I would not support him in any manner as long as he was in a "rebellious mode". After he got right with the Lord, he got right with us. Read the story of the Prodigal Son in the Gospel of Luke 15. It was not until the Prodigal son repented, was he able to restore his relationship with his father.
He has done really well while in prison accruing 7 associate degrees, 1 bachelor and 1 masters degree. He reads, writes and speaks French. I realize some of you already know this, but there are others that this is new information. No Smoking, no drugs or tattoos.
So as you can see he just didn't sit around and do his time. I would ask that you keep Daniel and his Parole Hearing in your prayers. It will take about 5-6 hours.
I will give you an update on the results of the Parole Hearing as soon as we get them.
Thank you so much!

Maranatha,
Frank and Harriet
