It’s been one year since we launched chess across the Kansas Department of Corrections Yesterday at Hutchinson Correctional Facility, we had a great turnout and a fantastic and impactful event. We had 46 participants sign up to attend at the east unit of the facility and another 36 sign up at the central unit. This event was jam-packed with residents wanting to learn and hungry to hear an encouraging word. They held on to all words & instruction that was spoken to speak life into them and give them the tools to become productive members of the community in and outside of prison. We came away with a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place winner from each facility. They will go on to compete in the intrastate online chess tournament held this summer. You could sense & feel the energy in the room as the competitive juices were flowing; they understood what was at stake. In one game, Damien, a skilled and longtime chess player who has transformed his life & has become a leader inside the prison, played like a man POSSESSED. In the middle game, he lost his Queen to his opponent's timely & strategic move. This did not deter Damien as he began to garner the forces of his rooks, teaming them up and using them to fight off the attack of the Queen from his determined opponent. His focus and timely moves allowed him to corner his opponent's Queen and pin her against his own king causing an exchange and leaving Damien up a Rook & 1 pawn versus the opponent 2 pawns. Damien then walked his opponent down to the last rank and file & checkmated him in dramatic fashion! This was for 2nd place. At the Central Unit, we were met by many hungry players, men from all ages ranging from 60's all the way down to 20 years of age. These men in one of the toughest and hardest prisons in Kansas were excited and eager to hear an encouraging word. They expressed their appreciation for these events, & some from last year have even started their very own chess clubs that meet on Thursday's. As I spoke, I saw the look in their eyes as I had lived that life, understood that look, and knew what they needed to hear & wanted to receive. They wanted to receive that encouragement, that instruction, & the tools that could free them from their incarceration. Instruction & tools that can transform a life. Speaking to these men, I was able to confer how the game of chess can free their mind and give them the tools they need to become the person that they need to become to raise above their circumstance. In one instance, I had a young man speak to me about his desire to go to college and to be productive even though he has a 49-year sentence. I told him that his life is not over. I compared it to the clock that we use while playing chess. I mentioned that the game is not over as long as we keep making the necessary moves to position ourselves for success. If we do that, & the clock is still running the game is not over! YOU STILL GOT TIME! It is only about what you choose to do w/ your time.

Thanks to the generosity of the Union Rescue Mission donor/volunteer community and our partnership with the Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC), women, families, and men released on parole are receiving needed support as they launch a new chapter in life! Tanya and Mandy (KDOC associates directly behind the van) made three trips last week to collect items for distribution to KDOC parolees and their families. May God continue to bless the dedicated staff at KDOC and all whom they serve.
