Many of the simple things we take for granted every day in our walk of faith are only dreams for most believers in prison. A study bible in an acceptable translation that will withstand the rigors and harsh conditions of a long prison sentence, a concordance and other reference books that will help them study and understand the bible, a prayerbook to pray from, and a prayer shawl to pray under....

    
     These and other items are almost impossible for prisoners to obtain without help, and help for Sabbath keeping inmates from their "brethren" whom are free is rare and hard to find. When help and donations do come, they are often too little and short-lived. This should not be so. What we need are charitable and open-handed believers who will do the woks of faith by committing themselves to sponsoring inmates in the spirit of Deuteronomy 15:7 and Acts 2:44-45, even if only in a limited capacity or for a limited period of time. With enough of us helping, we who call ourselves children of the Most High can correct this shameful deficiency among us.

     With our Sponsor an Inmate Program you can choose to help a needy inmate in a number of ways: 

• You may select certain items which you wish to provide an inmate or you may sponsor all of their religious needs.
•  You may donate items one at a time to an inmate, or supply all of their needs at once.
•  You may make a long term, short term, or one time commitment. 
• We can inform the inmate of your identity or you may remain anonymous.

     The following items are the basic necessities of an observant Messianic believer in prison:

• Bible                                                                                                                $25    
• Concordance                                                                                                    $20
• PrayerBook (siddur)                                                                                         $20
• Prayer shawl (tallith)                                                                                        $30
• Torah Study Book (Chumash)                                                                          $25
• Passover service booklet (Hagadah)                                                                  $3
• Matzah and grape juice (for Passover and Sabbaths)                                        $10 (per year)
• Cash to purchase food items for Spring & Fall feasts                                        $30 (per year)

 *Note* Most prison cafeteria foods are forbidden during the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Hag HaMatzot) and observant inmates who do not have funds to purchase alternatives are forced to go hungry for 8 days.

     For a one time donation of about $120 plus $40 a year, a needy Sabbath keeping believer in prison can be supplied with all their needs. It is hard to imagine the immense heartfelt gratitude that is felt by these brethren when they are the recipient of such generous charity. It is time Messianic Sabbath Keepers begin to take care of our brethren in prison as other faiths already do. We have been instructed by our Messiah to do so (Matt.25:35-36 ). Please join us today. Don’t wait – and give generously. If you don’t, who will??
