Proceeds from the Auction support the ongoing ministry of Gospel Echoes Team providing Bible Study Correspondence Courses, Scripture Address Booklets, Prisoners’ Pocket New Testaments, Ministry Teams presenting the Gospel through song and preaching, and prison events including Cookie Projects and Freedom Rallies.

Supporting this event will help to make a difference in the lives of the prisoners that will last for eternity. The needs around us are great and out prison population is swelling to over 2.2 million inmates in the United States alone. The national average cost of incarceration is $45,000 annually, with some facilities’ costs being over $135,000!

Our rate of recidivism is nearly 70%. Lasting change comes from regeneration by God the Father through His Son Jesus Christ. II Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, behold, all things are become new.” Jesus said in Matthew’s Gospel, “I was in prison and you visited me.” Those who surrender to God’s Word are being changed!
