Embarking on a 7 week journey, the Mullett and Miller families will be traveling the west coast with one mission: to share the message of our Lord Jesus Christ. Through song, word, and drama the families will inspire and motivate those they come in contact with to join in with living out this message of love and grace.

  It takes your encouragement, financial support, but most importantly  prayerful intercession to enable these families to walk in this journey and calling. Please join in whatever avenue you can to show your appreciation and support. To help in a financial way, call our office and talk to Lonnie Raber, our office manager at828-859-7003.

 ”My year here at Gospel Express has been above and beyond what I ever imagined. It’s been so much more than working in an office… from making lasting friendships, to working along-side a “family” that daily pours life into my spirit, and experiencing the provision, protection, and comfort that can only come from our Lord Jesus Christ. If you’re in need of a growing year, this is the “green house” for you!”

 

“My experience here with Gospel Express is something that I will never regret doing. The stepping out has been a time of stretching and growth. The blessings and provisions that God loves to favor us with when we follow where He leads has become a reality in this past year. Lots of good memories, new sisters, more friends and family are just a few of the many good things that I get to experience.”

-Rebecca Gingerich

“Just a few brief words to express my love and support to the Penner Family… Their heart for God and people coupled with compassionate ministry to widows is a reflection of Christ’s love in action. They ministered through long days, cramped vans, late nights, and mosquito bites,J as we constantly moved from village to village.

I am also grateful to God for the pastors who gave us the privilege to minister in their churches and communities and also the prison authorities who welcomed us. May the Lord abundantly bless those who support these ministry endeavors. We shall continue to work while it is day for the night cometh when no man can work.”    - Nelson Coblentz

Highlights from the Penner Family….

Breaking new ground at Hattieville Prison… A hundred young men came out for singing and the Bondage to Freedom seminar. I understand this was the first Bondage to Freedom seminar conducted outside of North America. We could almost hear the party going on in Heaven as more than 45 men came forward to accept Jesus as Savior. What joy to see one of the guards come join the group at the altar, crying out to God for forgiveness! He also attended every session of the seminar, not out of obligation but out of hunger for spiritual food.

Widows banquets… in Roaring Creek and San Ignacio filled us with memories of our dear widow friends at home. These ladies came to life as the music started! They sang and clapped along, and later could not express their thanks enough.

Testimonies of changed lives because of Christ’s love demonstrated during the Prison Crusades.

   Inmate’s daughter…

I’m enclosing a gift of appreciation to hopefully help you continue carrying your message and music to prisons where it is so much needed. The Gospel Express has been a great blessing to my father and fellow inmates at Lee Correctional in Bishopville, SC. The February 8-12 teams were sent by God “on time” and were especially helpful to my Daddy through some trying weeks. Thank you for going behind the walls to show Christ to those who need Him so much! – Sherry

Inmate…

Some of these inmates don’t have any families and this is the only family that they have, the volunteers that come in and minister to them. My sister was hit and killed by a vehicle in East Africa, where we grew up as missionary kids. She was 6 years old and I was 9. Later I contracted HIV there. For many, many years I was bitter towards God. When I came back to the United States to go to college I made some bad choices and they ended up bringing me here.  The Mullett Family came and they shared the loss of their son. It really spoke to me…that God heals us. I shared my experience with them and we found mutual strength from one another through that experience of loss.

Warden…

When inmates have contact with the outside world, it shows people have not forgotten about them. They are being given a chance and an opportunity to better themselves. Without volunteer assistance and support, it would be very difficult to manage these inmates.

Chaplain…

People ask me why I do what I do; does prison ministry matter…why care about these men at all? To that I say, God takes broken things and makes them whole. He turns disorder into Godly order. Men who used to curse now bless. It happens because of who Jesus is and what He has done in the lives of these men. Nobody can pastor a thousand men by themselves, which is why volunteers are so incredibly important to come alongside what God is already doing here at Perry.
