FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 31, 2009





Karlton S. Harris Minister, Writer, Motivational Speaker, Entrepreneur

“I’M FREE! NOW WHAT?”
10-STEP Prisoner Guide to Reduce Recidivism


KANKAKEE, IL- After great anticipation, Karlton S. Harris released his first book “I’M FREE! NOW WHAT?” on Saturday, July 18th, 2009 at Olivet Nazarene University’s Weber Center located One University Avenue Bourbonnais, IL. In “I’m Free! Now What?” Karlton addresses the challenges that men and women encounter upon being released from prison. Based on Karlton’s personal experiences, “I’m Free! Now What?” gives 10 steps that ex-offenders can follow to remain free by becoming successful parents and law abiding citizens.

Growing up in a single parent home, Karlton was influenced greatly by lessons learned on the streets. Because of the lack of a male role model or “father figure”, he headed down the wrong path, which led to his arrest. He was sentenced to 18 years in prison, but through the grace and mercy of God, his sentence was reduced which led to his early release. After serving 5 years, he was released February 14th, 2000. While incarcerated, Karlton accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and has developed a passion and yearning to go back into the penal system and help those who are currently in the same boat that he was in.

Today Karlton has been free for over 9 ½ years, and because he was given a second chance, Karlton wants to help others with their transition back into society. He knows from first hand experience the challenges and obstacles that are waiting once outside the prison walls. From rejection, to
temptation to the biggest thing…..fear. His guide through the DAMASCUS RD experience will help others to take on all the challenges that they will face once free. This book will certainly serve as a guide to many.

Karlton is a great advocate for men and women everywhere who are or have been incarcerated. He has and continues to make a difference in numerous lives because he has found the answer to the question “Now What?” Karlton is committed to the Kankakee County Community, the State of Illinois, and to helping develop ways to reduce the prison recidivism rate. He is currently working with various community leaders and the Kankakee County Sheriff’s Department re-entry program. Karlton is the newly elected President of the KCRO (Kankakee County Renewed Opportunity) a non profit organization focused on providing services to offenders returning to Kankakee County. Because he’s so passionate about prison ministry, he goes back and visits with inmates that are incarcerated, giving Bible studies and offering much needed emotional support to those in need. For Karlton,

it is an honor and a privilege to be able to offer assistance to others who are in the shoes he once filled. Besides volunteering his time for prison ministry, Karlton also writes books, does motivational speaking and has completed a documentary film.
One week after his book, “I’m Free! Now What?” was released the Jerome Combs Detention Facility purchased 1000 copies. After reading Karlton’s book Chief Mike Downey of the Kankakee County Sheriff’s Department determined that this book would be an asset to the detainees. Since Aug. 17, 2009, Karlton has been teaching 2 weekly classes from his book. Each class consists of 20 men. This 6 week course is structured to equip the men and women with the ability to be able to remain free once they are released. Upon completion participants will receive a certificate. In addition to the men’s class, Karlton’s book is being taught weekly by Evangelist Carolyn Butler to the women in the Jerome Combs Detention Facility.

“AGAINST ALL ODDS- THE DOCUMENTARY OF KARLTON HARRIS”

“Against All Odds“ is the story of Karlton Harris. At the age of 19, Karlton was sentenced to 18 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections for possession of a controlled substance and armed violence. While incarcerated, Karlton denounced his gang affiliation and accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. After serving 5 years of his 18 year prison sentence, Karlton was miraculously released. It has been 9 years since his release and he has defied the odds by not returning. Instead of returning to prison with a new sentence, Karlton returns weekly educating prisoners from his new book “I’m Free! Now What?“ He teaches 10 steps that reduces the chance of them re-offending. Because Karlton has been given a second chance, he not only helps others like HIMSELF, he defies the odds thereby placing the odds in the favor of his sons NEVER being a part of the penal system. A trailer of this documentary can be viewed by clicking on the following link http://www.karltonharris.com/Video.html

How In the Hell Did We Get Here?!
By: Pastor Richard A. Young

Tuesday, September 29, 2009

CALUMET CITY, IL.—The Fenger High School deadly beating incident in Chicago is a travesty. I say it is and not was because this type of senseless aggression is always with us. It does not just affect the community in which the incident happened, but it affects all of us. I am embarrassed as a proud black man who values our history, well being as a people, and all life. Not only is the fighting and beating senseless, but some of the comments from parents and others have appalled me. You cannot justify the incident by simply saying, “They’re gang bangers and that’s what they do.” This is a comment that, though it is sickening, is an example of the apathetic mindset present in much of the black community. We seem to have come to a place where gang violence is not only accepted, but also welcomed. Gang violence, children lying dead in our streets has become commonplace. We are not even alarmed anymore. In fact, we expect gang activity, drug trafficking, and senseless violence in our underprivileged communities. This degraded level of life is unacceptable. This is beneath our dignity as a people. We come from royalty. And though we were slaves in this country, a member of our community has captured the White House, the highest office in the land. We are not only survivors, but also over-comers. We have overcome much persecution and abuse in this country from outside forces, but now we are terrorizing our own communities. We have long been denied justice and equal protection under the law, yet, we now do ourselves injustice. Are we supposed to be ok with this? A young man goes to and from school, but comes from the wrong housing project, so he is battered severely. Does this make sense? In a situation like this no one wins. What possible remedy is there for this devastating problem? Where are the proud and unmovable men and women that head our households? How are boys now running our homes and the streets? With the apathetic comments of some of the adults we have heard in this incident, we can see how.
I do not have the answers, but I do know that this behavior is not normal. We cannot point to an outside force intruding on our territory and enslaving or brutalizing us. We are tearing down our own community. I applaud Bishop Tavis Grant, Father Michael Flaeger, and the other pastors and community activists that have spoken out. Let us continue to sound the alarm. My prayer is that this inspires men and women of cause to raise a standard in their immediate communities. We have a standard of dignity, respect, and unity that we must uphold.
Those of us in the church cannot become confined to our ivory towers and be oblivious to the plight of the surrounding community. Jesus walked and saw when He executed His Galilean ministry. There is a demon possession prevalent in our neighborhoods. When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Lord will raise a standard against it. Call the demon out! God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love, power, and a sound mind. Sound the alarm, raise the standard, and reclaim the community!

3rd Watch Prayer Session - TONIGHT!

Friday, September 25, 2009
12:00 midnight (EST)

Dial: (269) 320-8200

Greetings To All,

God has spoken to me that we need to hold a 3rd watch prayer session. This watch is one of the most important to attend to as this is the watch where there are increased satanic activities.

It is written "But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way." (Matthew 13:25)

In other words, while we are sleeping, demonic forces are wreaking havoc in the body of Christ as well as our individual lives!!!

There will be NO SPEAKERS during this time. This will be strictly a time of intercession.

This session will be a time of release in many areas of our lives! I need as many to participate in this session as possible as this will be of the most important sessions that we have ever held.

I ask that you remain prayerful and join us!

if you have up coming event please send me an email if you are not on my friend page. add me as a friend will be in GA, first week of october. thanks and it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work. And it came to pass from that time forth, that the half of my servants wrought in the work, and the other half of them held both the spears, the shields, and the bows, and the habergeons; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah. - Nehemiah 4:15-16
