Christmas Behind Bars at Andrews University

On Sunday, Oct. 26, approximately 380 volunteers discovered that by diligently working together, in 190 minutes they could assemble 8,200 care packages for people in prison. That’s one bag every 1.4 seconds. 

The packing event was held in Johnson Gym on the campus of Andrews University and was organized by Pioneer Memorial Church and Andrews University in partnership with the ministry of Christmas Behind Bars and its president Lemual Vega.
