Dennis and I are wanting to get more Christian literature into the hands of the inmates here in the Summit County Jail. Due to the layoffs, the inmates have been spending a lot of time in lock down mode, which leaves a lot of time that needs to be spent wisely.
We are asking that if you have books in your library that you would be willing to donate that are in good shape we would love to take them off of your hands and get them into circulation.
We also receive a lot of requests for study Bibles, remember there can be no metal, so that rules out zippered Bibles and most chapter tabs.

If you would be interested in giving books, please contact me by email and we will make arrangements to pick them up. Remember, material gifts are tax deductible, and will be receipted upon request.

A thought: most folks buy a book and read it once, and then it sits on your shelf for a thousand years until you die and then your family throws them away , or something like that. If you buy a book read it and then donate it to the jail, it may get read a couple hundred times or more, really. I am not kidding. We have some folks that are ravenous when it comes to good books.

Thanks so much,

Chaplain John Wiseman
