This is from Kelly, so far Kelly and family and Isaac's mom are the only people who have been approved to visit him.

Just wanting to finally give an update and extend our gratitude and appreciation to all of you! Yesterday marked 50 days that Isaac has been gone, and although it has been hard and strenuous in many ways, we are still so blessed and feel God's grace and goodness to us in the midst of this trial. Yesterday on Thanksgiving, the children and I were able to visit with Isaac, which was such a treat! He told me he has been recieving many letters that have been very encouraging and uplifting. He seems to finally be adapting to prison life (as much as one could). He has a woodworking job inside the prison, and attends classes for school. He is finally learning algebra! 🙃 I joke and say I could help him and be his tutor.😉 (Although it's been quite a long time ago since I learned Algebra!🙈) But he seems to enjoy the classes, as they help make the time pass quicker.

The void is big as we approach winter, since we rely solely on wood heat. Our family has been such a blessing in helping cut, stack and haul wood for us so we can stay warm! Our church family and community have been so supportive and Isaac, the children and I have been so overwhelmed with the abundance of love and donations you all have contributed to us! Words don't seem adequate to express the deep appreciation we feel from all of your prayers, concern, and support! We are eternally grateful to all of you who have given and those who pray for us! Isaac said he feels God's safety, presence and protection inside the prison, and we know that is due to all the prayers.💛 May God continue to bless you all as you have blessed us!
