The top 4 reasons offenders end up behind bars are drug offenses, theft, traffic offenses, and assault. Kathy was charged with 2 of the top 4, but through the power of God, she made it out of the system.
I was charged with assault with a deadly weapon due to a wrong decision I made one night. I was arrested and sent to prison. Let me tell you, life behind bars was no life at all; it was just miserable.
I had seen so much behind those walls: people cutting themselves, people lying on the dirty ground, cut up and bleeding. There would be fights and riots among inmates, and it would often get fatal.
There was no peace inside me. I only had hatred, fear, and frustration. I would see the worst of the worst. It was like that throughout my time in prison. I was in a dark place. I lost all hope of ever having freedom again, but I thank God for the UBB coming into the unit.
Through their work, care, and dedication, I was helped so much. The UBB classes opened my eyes and taught me to look ahead and improve my life, even while in prison. received letters from the UBB, which allowed me to believe that someone was truly there for me.
I got released from prison and came to the Universal Church. My life is moving forward daily and I’m learning more about my faith and getting closer to God.
