Hawaii: Prisoners choose to live for God Roy
Yamamoto’s criminal activities ran the gamut: assault, kidnapping, extortion,
attempted murder, and second-degree robbery. He was facing a conviction that
carried a sentence of 80 years to life. But after his Christian cellmate invited
him to the prison’s Bible study, he decided to change his life around and live
for God. After that, through an amazing series of legal proceedings, a Christian
judge saw potential in Roy and dropped the charge against him; he was released
from prison in 1996.
These days, Roy has made his way back to prison,
though for a completely different reason: he shares the love of Jesus with
prisoners and shows them the freedom that He found in Christ. His church, New
Hope Christian Fellowship Church of Oahu, Hawaii, developed an incredible prison
ministry. Most of the people in the ministry were also once convicted of crimes
and are now living and evangelizing for Jesus Christ. In the outreaches,
thousands of prisoner lives have been changed.
