Washington Baptist Church

“God’s Prison Gang”, a newly released film featuring A1 Capone’s getaway drive, the last member of Bonnie and Clyde’s gang and two other notorious criminals who have become Christians will be shown at the Washington Baptist Church in Washington on Sunday, March 20, at 6:30 p.m.

The film, shot behind the walls of New York’s Attica prison, is hosted by Art Linkletter. It tells the story of how the work of International Prison Ministry is accomplishing what more guards, higher prison walls and greater financial expenditures have failed to do—keep released inmates from returning to lives of crime.

Telling their stories in the 44-minute film are George Meyer, A1 Capone’s favorite driver; Floyd Hamilton, (Public Enemy No. 1) the last of the Bonnie and Clyde Gang; Jerry Graham, the “robber king” of California; and Ted Jefferson, convicted of crimes from drugs and robbery to murder.

Also featured is “Chaplain Ray”, whose Dallas-based International Prison Ministry has changed the lives of thousands of inmates over the past 18 years.

The Rev. Steven N. Scoggin, pastor of Washington Baptist Church invites the public to attend.

Mt. Lebanon

Baptist Church

An afternoon of good music, featuring the Joint Heirs, a quartet under the leadership of former blue grass singer Cliff Waldron, is planned at Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, Sunday, March 27, beginning at 2 p.m.

Cliff Waldron gave up singing blue grass a few years ago and decided to do his singing for the Lord. Soon he joined with three other likeminded Northern Virginians, Ross Dixon, Vernis Adams, and Gary Witsman, and the Joint Heirs was formed.

Mt. Lebanon’s pastor, Rev. William Lancaster, invites all neighbors in the community to join in this inspirational afternoon of gospel songs. A love offering will be collected.

Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church is located on Route 522, six miles south of Sperryville, at Scrabble.
