Subject: Parole Hearing Prayer Request

I have a prayer request for a man who has been in prison for about 5 years.

Jessie and I have been writing back and forth for two years now as of April 26, 2003. We have become very close in the course of these past two years, and Jessie talks to me about things that he doesn�t talk to anyone else about. Like how he is feeling, and what he would like to accomplish, how much he misses being able to make his own choices and the freedom of working hard to make his own life and things of that nature. We also talk on the phone from time to time, sometimes once or twice a month, and sometimes once a week.

Before he was imprisoned, he worked on high-rise buildings for S.S. Steel as a welder, and construction worker. He has many skills that would aid him in finding work in Society and once he�s out he would like to get his credentials for underwater welding, because the pay is very good. Jessie is originally from Alabama, and comes from a large family of 13 brothers and sisters. He wants desperately to settle down and start a family of his own, as he loves children.

During the time that I�ve been writing to him I�ve seen that Jessie is a very kind, and goodhearted man. He cares for others a great deal more then himself. He is a man of his word and incredibly trustworthy. Since his last parole hearing, he has worked very hard to abide by the rules and regulations set by the state and the Prison, and done his best to cooperate with the prison officials.

He's lost more then I could possibly include in this letter while he's been incarcerated. Including his brother Danny, and his mother. Both he was extremely close to.

Jessie has another parole hearing on May 5th 2003, and my prayer request is that God let the parole board see how hard that Jessie has been working, trying to do what is right. And to pray that they give him a second chance and grant him his parole.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I'll be sure and let every one know how the hearing went.

Marian
