Faith Dorms Across Texas
The State of Texas has opened the door for every prison to have a faith-based dorm! They have seen evidence of the e ectiveness of God’s Word through changed lives. There are more than 160,000 inmates in Texas prisons. What a day this is for the body of Christ — the prison doors are open!
Discipleship Unlimited Faith Dorms
Our First Dorm: Murray
We started Murray Faith Based Dorm nearly fi ve years ago. It has been a long and — at times — a painful process. However, the results have been amazing!
- We continue to provide programming, curriculum, and interactive small groups.
- Five of our graduates are now mentors in the faith-based dorm and are modeling discipleship.
- Other graduates are leading studies in the general population.
- Graduates who have been released are staying in touch with us and serving God in the local church and other ministries.
- The success of the faith-dorm graduates is evidence that God’s Word accomplishes His purposes. See a three-minute KSAT ABC news program of the dorm in action.
Our Second Dorm: Hobby
Hobby was our second dorm and has been up and running for more than two years.
- 62 women are in the discipleship program.
- We have graduated one class.
- Graduates are involved in ministry on the inside and outside of prison walls.
Steps of Faith
The ministry of Discipleship Unlimited is exploding with opportunities as never before. God is doing a big work! We now have 160 active volunteers who are regularly serving in the prisons.
Now we are stepping out to start NEW faith dorms at Mountain View Unit and Hilltop. We will provide books, videos, teachers, programming, and leadership. God is expanding our tent pegs!
Apart from your generous giving, we could never do this. You are joining the Lord in His ministry of setting captives free. Thank you from our staff , ministry team, and the men and women in white.
Only Christ offers the hope of true forgiveness. He is life. I will declare His glory!
Hello I have a girl in Lane Murray who would be interested in your program. How can you guys connect with her? Also a few months back I sent a letter to your PO Box and no one responded. Can someone follow up with me?
Terry and Jeanie:
I just wanted to touch base with you all. I was one of the original members at the Hobby Unit FB Dorm, and then was transferred to the Trusty Camp at GV. My father and I started the Sisters of Jesus inside the walls, and to date we continue to help the indigent women in the TDCJ system at GV, HB, and MV.
Thank you so much for coming and sharing with all of us, and thank you for never stopping to share your love with all of the women.
Many blessings, prayers and love your way.

I am a graduate of the 2010 lane murray faith dorm. I now reside in temple, texas and attend the rose garden church which is set up for homeless and parolees. Anyone in temple that isnt allowed to go to a regular church due to parole rules I encourage you to come visit. I love all the DU vlunteers and one day would like to become one. The Lord works things out for the good of His people. Just look at me. Thank you Linda for allowing Him to use you for our benefit. Go DU!! Praise the LORD!!!
