Chuck and Debbie Donley: March 2006
Dear Co-Laborers in Christ,
As we come to the close of the first quarter of 2006 we reflect back on so may blessings of the past 3 months. I started off the year by flying to our January conference in Cleveland, TN. What a great week of preaching and getting our batteries charged up. I also had the opportunity to work a few days at the print shop putting together booklets that our ministry passes out to men and women in prison. Only eternity will reveal the impact of the printed page. Upon my return home I began prison revivals, beginning at the Special Committment Center at Steilacoom, WA. The devil fought hard there with high winds. The transportation boat was unable to run 2 of the 3 days, but the Lord gave us one good service with men being helped and challenged. I then went to the Olympic Corrections Center in Forks, WA for a 3 day revival. We had great services with the chapel filled with men and 14 salvation decisions being made. I then went to the Mission Creek Corrections center for women for a 3 day revival. On Friday night after the service I received a call from my daughter letting me know my wife had been taken to the hospital in Richland, WA with chest and arm pains. Bro. Hinton and his wife were able to finish out the revival. To God be the glory she was released after 2 days. I also have had the opportunity to do prison work at Coyote Ridge Corrections Center on several occasions. This is a minimum security prison just 20 miles from my home, so I go there often when I'm at home. Coyote Ridge will be the largest prison in the state of Washington by the end of 2008 as it's being converted over to a higher level security prison
I had the opportunity to report back to several of my supporting churches in the area and to fill in for a pastor on a Sunday while he was gone.
I will be going to Stevensville, MT to do a church revival and then will go on to Boise for a 3 day prison revival. We are able to do housing visitation during the day.
Please pray for souls to be saved, lives changed, and safety in travel as I go to the following prisons:
- CCA - Boise - March 30-April 1, 2006
- Pine Lodge Corrections Center for Women - Medical Lake, WA, April 10, 2006
- Washington State Penitentiary - Walla Walla, WA - April 15-18, 2006
- Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution - Pendleton, OR - April 18-20, 2006
- Coyote Ridge Corrections Center - Connell, WA - May 2-3, 2006
- California Blitz - May 8-11, 2006
- Cedar Creek Corrections Center - Littlerock, WA May 18-20, 2006
- Special Commitment Center - Steilaccom, WA - May 26-28, 2006
I want to thank you all who support us financially on a monthly basis, send special love gifts, and pray for us. We could not do the work God has called us to without your faithful support.
In His service,
Chuck Donley
