My name is Leonel Leon, #m39123, all my life I grew with my family's religious edition of Roman Catholic. Neither my mother nor my father nor myself anything about the bible. My mother was a little more devoted to Jesus, but my father was hooked on Santeria. I had one son my first marriage and when I got married for the second time my wife and I had another son and a daughter they both threw up on private Catholic school. Even though my wife and I went to church every other Sunday with our kids and heard beautiful relaxing sermons and music my wife and I would leave the church with the same sinful nature that we went it with. Because we did not even know what it was to be born again and regenerated by the Holy spirit. Even though I was totally dedicated to my work, my wife and my children I was always struggling with my own strength and I never in my life had any trouble with the law before. In January 1999 I was arrested and incarcerated for the first time my life with a murder conviction for the first time in my life at the age of 41. I was totally broken and contrite because my sin. By God's grace I gave heed to the call Jesus and I was born again in the peace of God for my heart. I had the desire to know more about Jesus and to read and study his Word. It was in this broken and contrite state that the lord grew spiritually in the knowledge of the truth of his word which I did not know before. Ever since all I've been doing in prison studying the Bible and sharing the word and love of Christ to everyone I coming contact with. And right now in 2011, I am also rejoicing every night with my dear brother Joseph Ducker of Press In Press On Press On with all the other brothers that congregate with us there to share God's diving word. And I encourage everyone who is reading my testimony to do the same because you'll never regret surrendering your whole heart to Jesus and allow him to lead you through his words are spirit because even though I lost all my material possessions and my fiscal freedom ,In 1999 Jesus made me totally free in spirit allows me to bring many others to Christ. And I had the Devine privilege to bring my own father to Christ in 2000 and deliver him from the curse of sanataria and he decided to receive Jesus as his lord and savior. To God be all the glory and honor for being so loving and merciful on giving methe divine strength and power to live the Christian life that is pleasing. Now my love for God and for others IS genuine because of the immense appreciation that I haven my heart for Jesus because of all the agonizing suffering he wen through to save a wretch like me. So dear friends friends, I encourage you to give heeded to the call Jesus open your heart and allow him to fill you with love so you can share eternity with him. May our loving Lord divinely inspire you to make the right decision and may his rich blessings be upon you. With sincere christian love and affection, your Friend
