In 2009 Terry and Suzanne McDonald received the call of God to go into the prisons bringing the good news of Jesus to those who are incarcerated. We believe that no one is too far gone and everyone needs to hear and experience the love of Jesus Christ.  We know without this hope, healing, and restoration, many will re-offend and end up back in prison, creating more hurt and pain. The only way we will see change is to go to them with the hope that can change, heal, and restore lives. Leading the lost to Christ, but not just stopping there, sharpening them, challenging them, equipping them with the Holy Word of God. 27seventeen Ministries joins TDCJ in an effort to continue to lower the recidivism rate.  Much progress has been made in the last decade, but there is much more work to be done. Our need for volunteers with the heart of Jesus is evident.  Our volunteers are the backbone of this ministry. We need people who have a heart and a willingness to share the love of Christ with those who are lost and hurting. We would love to have you partner with us as we advance God’s Kingdom behind the fences.  We cannot reach these men without our volunteers.  Everyone needs encouragement!  To learn more about volunteering contact us at . . .
