Christmas at Crossroads 2010

Crossroads Correctional is a Juvenile Camp for teens.

When you first see them, some look tough, some act mean.

But most of these kids were mislead right from the start.

Once you get to know them, you’ll see warm fragile hearts.

When we visit the youth we stay for two hours or three.

But our Christian spirits may be all the Jesus they see.

This year Christmas Day was scheduled as God’s Special time.

As Christians we had to see them, despite their past crimes.

It was a blessing that day, because all came to God’s throne.

No one was left behind; no one was left alone.

The smiles and the joy were present all over the place,

as we all sang and prayed to experience God’s Grace.

The staff that was there seen many miracles multiply.

The Spirit was so powerful it gave the devil a black eye.

It was the best Christmas for everyone, especially the boys.

For this was a Christ-filled Celebration without any toys!

Amen
