FUMC Uvalde to help with the Torres Chapel at the Prison in Hondo
The Church Council heard a presentation this January from Rev. Kent Kepler who is very involved in ministry for the prisoners at the Torres Prison Unit in Hondo, TX. Rev. Kent serves Kairos Prison Ministries which addresses the spiritual and faith-based needs of the incarcerated. He and the others called by God to Kairos and Chapel of God’s Country Ministries have raised enough money to build the structure of a chapel, a much needed location to fit the high demand of prisoners to take part in Kairos weekends and Christian worship. However, they need further funds to equip and furnish it. One of the items needed for the finishing of the chapel is stained glass windows, among other items like audio visual equipment, seating, and appliances.
The FUMC Uvalde Church Council discussed the issue and it was approved that $40,000.00 for the stained glass windows be donated to help in the goal of making the chapel a sacred worship place where our “brothers in white” can come to know and dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ.
It is exciting for us to partner in this ministry that will be a long, active ministry for years to come.
