Sounds like Catherine and PEP are in need of prayer and God’s grace. I hope the recent news doesn’t derail PEP, as it seems like a very good organization.

Hi Les,

I don’t believe resources are limited. We live in a country of abundance. The only think that is limited is our generosity, our creativity, and our courage.

I’ll tell you what, how about if we try a creative idea… You tell me your story – tell me about yourself and your dreams of starting your own business and about the obstacles you’re facing – and I will post it on my blog. Then we’ll see if the people who read the blog are generous and creative enough to help you overcome those obstacles.

What do you say?

- Paul

What a great idea however I can’t help feeling some anger because you have working class people like myself and my family who want to start our own business and are capable but we don’t have any breaks.

And yet here you are giving these people – criminals, no matter how you package it up – a break where you could do far better giving this break to working people – people with no criminal record.

Am I being jealous? Nope, but I’m being pratical and with limited resources and finances you could easily help people who are more deserving.

Hello Catherine Rohr I pray that all is well with you. I am sending this letter on behalf of my husband. Altone P.St.Romaine#655484 whom is in prison in the Bill Clements Unit in Amarillo Texas. He sent me an article from a magazine on you and wanted me to send him information on how he can contact you.They do not have access to computers, so i’m asking is there any other way he can contact you? He is very intelligence, he writes music, as well as poetry. He just made bad choicest, but with a lot of prayer i truly believe he’s back on track. Thank You
