Exciting Book News!

Aug9

https://nationofwomenpublishing.com/product/his-voice-in-my-heart-to-freedom/

A Colorado Women’s Correctional Institution has contacted my publisher requesting donation of the “His Voice in My Heart” book series. They currently have 550 inmates, and stated that about 150 of them consistently attend church services and read faith-based books.

The publisher wrote to the warden to confirm, inquire of how many they wanted and asked how they learned of the books, as they had requested them by title.

She received confirmation from the warden today and contact from the coordinator as well. He stated that he heard about them from the inmates and that they were recommended by several chaplains and volunteers as well. They are asking for 50 of each of the “His Voice in My Heart” books. Which we will send, along with 50 of “Comfort in the Challenge,” which they agreed they would like as well. Hopefully, the excitement of the inmates and the extra 50 books will spill out to the other inmates that don’t attend services and draw them into God’s love.

This is so exciting to me!

This is only one small prison of thousands across the country that we send to via, Prison Book Project, of Titusville Florida; a prison book-placing ministry that we utilize and are so thankful for!

The fact that they want 200 books is evidence that hearts are hungry and the books are touching them!

Praise Jesus!

Would you consider being a part of this exciting opportunity to bring comfort, healing and JESUS to hearts of those hidden from society, but not hidden from God?

He came to set the captives free!

Give the Gift of Compassion

All, “His Voice in My Heart” books, along with “Comfort in the Challenge” are being sent, free of charge, to prisons, jails and rehab centers all over the country; and are offered freely to the homeless.

A special thank you to my publisher, Cindy Neathery, for offering this valuable opportunity!

Your generous donation will be used for printing and sending vital books to a lost, broken, and hurting world–additionally, this author has not taken anything from the sale of any of the books, but re-invests everything received–continuing to place these life-giving books into their hands.


Below are direct quotes of a letter received from an inmate that has read the first of the series, “His Voice in My Heart.”

“But for the next time I picked up the book and started reading it I couldn’t put it down. I really got into the book and don’t understand why I did but the book spoke to me in a lot of ways and in ways that I can change myself. It is a really good book and you put some good stories in it.”

“I don’t know what made me pick it up again and not only that but couldn’t put it down and it’s almost like what you said about praying for the lady at work and you said it wasn’t the right time to pray for her but at the right time you did. Well I feel the same way about the book. It was God that done everything. But I want to thank you again for the book that I was reading. I hope to read more of them.”

Thank you, Prison Book Project for making this happen!

Other than what is sent free of charge, proceeds from purchases of “Comfort in the Challenge” will go directly to Canaanland Ministries of Autaugaville, Alabama. A wonderful ministry, proven for over 40 years in successfully restoring men, struggling with addiction, to a new life in Christ– giving families their husbands, sons back.

Please consider a direct donation to them by visiting:

http://www.canaanland.com

Your generous, tax deductible donation will be helping them to fulfill a vision the Lord has placed on their heart–

A Canaanland Ministry in every state!

“Comfort in the Challenge” was written and published in November of 2019. It was written and dedicated to caregivers, before we knew of Covid 19.

My publisher had rejected the original title, stating that the Lord had spoken this to her, “Comfort in the Challenge.”

He had prophetically provided, in advance, for what He knew we were about to face.

Glory to God!

A special thank you and shout out to Prison Book Project of Titusville, Florida.

Their nearly 30 year ministry is devoted to placing good books in the hands of inmates in prisons, jails and rehab facilities; all over the country, as well as our military overseas! It is through their distribution of books that this has all been made possible.

Did you know that an individual can no longer send books into prisons? Books were being sent in laced with drugs, resulting in many deaths. Now, inmates can only receive books direct from a publisher, book-placing ministry, such as Prison Book Project or direct purchase through companies, such as Amazon, and Barnes & Noble. Unfortunately, this is now the world we live in; therefore, I am all the more so very thankful for Prison Book Project’s wonderful ministry!

Please consider a generous donation to their ministry to help with the costs of shipping these books by visiting:

Finally, an extra special thank you to all of you that have given to help make this dream come true. Many have caught the vision and have helped. To all of you, no matter how big or how small your donation, you are a vital part in fulfilling this calling. Thank you!

I cannot express enough how very thankful and grateful I am for your kindness!

Thank you so very much!

Love and blessings to you, Lori J. O’Neil

Genuine Fruit

Jun27

This week I opened my post office box to find fruit! It contained more letters, written from prisoners, that have read my books. It never gets old to hear from those that have been so touched by the Lord in these books that they feel the need to reach out and tell me about it.

One in particular really stood out . . .

Nicholas writes to ask if I will pray with him and his family, and he tells me his story. Everyone has a story to tell, but the truth of the matter shines through. Another inmate’s letter clearly indicates he’s looking for an outside connection, he tosses in a few spiritual phrases to show me he’s on track but there is plenty of evidence in his letter to the contrary. Nicholas, however, lays no blame but to himself. He takes full responsibility for his choices and actions and is repentant. One can be remorseful, but only that he got caught. This man began reading the Bible while in solitary, broke down at Psalm 51, repented and gave his life over to God. Nicholas continued reading the Bible, over and over and over. He came out of isolation so full of the Word that he began a daily Bible study– preaching on Sundays, 19 men got saved!

The fruit of his genuine repentance is that it didn’t stop there . . .

Nicholas remains engaged in prison ministry; preaching every Friday night, leading services in the chapel, as well as preaching and ushering in Sunday services. He has taken 29 correspondence courses and helps inmates study for their GED. He enrolled in, and has now completed, one semester with Duke University Divinity program, called Project Turn. It is part of Duke’s grad program. Ten inmates are selected to take classes side by side with Duke University grad students; and if that weren’t enough, Nicholas, was recently selected to the board of directors for the Genesis Project; an inmate-led program, teaching inmates to become the sons, fathers and husbands God meant them to be.

Like I said, genuine fruit!

After reading Nicholas’ story, I contacted the ministry that distributes my books to prisons, jails and rehabs all across the country, hoping they could send him the rest of the book series; only to find she was about to contact me. Joyce, of Prison Book Project, tells me they have distributed all the books I have given them. I lost track of the exact count but well over 6,000 books! She said they don’t have a single book left. Is there anyone out there with the means and a willing heart to help? I have poured everything I could get my hands on, into providing books these last four years and now I must deal with some long overdue house repairs! To date I have not taken so much as a dime from any of my books, but have turned every cent of sales into more books to place in the hands of inmates and the homeless. I so appreciate everyone who has helped so far, are there more that would like to be a part of this important mission?

There are many men, like Nicholas, the Lord would like to reach!

Thank you so very much for considering partnering with this vital ministry! The good fruit is revealing itself, and I so appreciate your help, financially and in prayers.

Please place Nicholas and his family in your prayers as well. He has 21 more years, but as his transformation continues, it is my hope and prayer that he be reunited with his family much sooner. He has four children.

To God be all Glory!

“God, give me mercy from your fountain of forgiveness! I know your abundant love is enough to wash away my guilt. Because your compassion is so great, take away this shameful guilt of sin. Forgive the full extent of my rebellious ways, and erase this deep stain on my conscience. for I’m so ashamed. I feel such pain and anguish within me. I can’t get away from the sting of my sin against you, Lord! Everything I did, I did right in front of you, for you saw it all. Against you, and you above all, have I sinned. Everything you say to me is infallibly true and your judgement conquers me.” Psalms 51:1-4 TPT

“Identify with those who are in prison as though you were there suffering with them, and those who are mistreated as if you could feel their pain.” Hebrews 13:3 TPT

Love and Blessings to you, Lori J. O’Neil
