Nothing in our mission has surprised me as much as the people we learn have a felony on their records.
Of course, some of the people coming in LOOK like I might expect a felon to look, but many of the people look like ordinary folk.
And, that is what is so incredible and unsettling.
In a moment, a person's life is shattered.
It is so very difficult for convicted felons to get jobs, apartments, loans....
It is something I wish I could warn m grandchildren about....
DO NOT DO SOMETHING STUPID!
Because it will haunt you for the rest of your life!
God may forgive you, but society won't!
