Show-Me Redemption For Missouri Prisoners

Amid an overly crowded and embattled prison system, here's hope for reform and a call to prayer . . . Apropos for Sunday:

Under a program expected to get underway in December, the Missouri Department of Corrections is joining forces with Hannibal-LaGrange University to launch college-level classes designed to train murderers, rapists and other long-term inmates to be ministers.
