Another victory for Jesus and a black eye for the devil!

Brianna and Bryan Wedding Day

Hi, My Name, is Bryan, you can see my testimony and pic from my prison ID on the website under Praise Reports labeled “The Challenge”. At the age of 19, I was arrested and later convicted of Attempted Voluntary Manslaughter, and I am serving 20 years in a California State Prison. I had no hope. My background was like most young men growing up without a father. I began using drugs at a very early age I joined a gang. I guess I was trying to drown out the pain that I had experienced most of my life. Since 2017 I attended on Sunday mornings with about 100 other inmates listening to the teachings of Dr. Timothy Emerick and his wife Claudia.

On December 7th, 2025, my wife and I had the blessing to marry Brianna and Bryan. We have mentored Bryan since 2017, and he was released from custody around February of this year. It has been a real pleasure to complete premarital counseling with them and see their growth.
