OJP Pictures Update

Earlier this week, we mailed out 33 packets of pictures to people who have requested them. The next day we mailed 33 more packets, and then on another day we sent 53 packets. Tomorrow we are mailing out 12 more packets of the beautiful free pictures of Jesus. As mentioned in an earlier post, they are going all over the world.

We took pictures to the chapel in the hospital last week and while there we offered some to two priests. One priest took some but the second priest said, "I already have some. I take them with me everywhere." and he reached into his pocket and pulled out some of the strung pictures of Jesus that we give out!

A teenage friend of ours recently saw a man on the street and asked him if he could buy a meal for him at McDonald's. The man said that he had just eaten so the teenager offered him some free pictures of Jesus. Our friend told us that the man reached out with eager hands, as though he were reaching out for Jesus Himself, as though he were receiving a great treasure.

We received a phone call today from someone who is staying in a homeless center, who was calling to ask us for free pictures. They had been given a picture of Jesus with the message that they can call us to get more. God bless the caller and help them with all their needs and God bless the person who gave the picture of Jesus to them.

We received a phone call this week from a man in prison, who was given our phone number from the back of one of the pictures of Jesus. This prisoner said that being arrested saved his life. He also said that he wants to change and that he wants Jesus to help him. We know that Jesus is in the business of loving all, and changing lives. Jesus, please help this prisoner and all prisoners.

Some friends of ours took some of the 8x10 pictures of Jesus to a motel in a rundown part of town to offer them to the manager for their rooms. Jesus told them which motel to go to with the pictures. They showed the manager the picture and she said she would put one in a drawer in every room in the motel. Our friends gave them every 8x10 that they had with them, which was a total of 33 pictures. It turned out that the motel has 33 rooms! Jesus knows how to lead us well.
