On July 27, 2009 one of Passion Flower Productions, Inc.’s, covenant churches, Calvary Baptist, welcomed the fourth woman coming out of the Florida prison system into the First Touch Ministry. This ministry has been created to assist female inmates that have paid their debt to society and are transitioning from prison to freedom.

Kathleen will be residing at Hope House on the grounds of Calvary Baptist Church for the next 10-12 months while she transitions back into the community as a contributing member. She plans to attend church and life groups, sing in the choir and serve others through the many ministries that Calvary offers. Through these transforming events that will mold her life, we trust that the lasting changes will affect not only Kathleen, but her children, as well.

Kathleen’s team, lead by Brenda Kennedy, will provide a strong Christian family to support, advise, and guide Kathleen as she learns to live in healthy freedom, surrounded by a group of believers who will be there to provide wise counsel and celebrate the victories that she can achieve by living according to the examples that Christ has provided to all. One of her team members, Valerie, is getting ready for a successful graduation from the ministry; and who better to help her navigate the barriers that life will present along the way.

Please pray for Kathleen, her team, their families and the churches that support this ministry.
