When Laughter Leaves the Home

The 2011 Returning Hearts Celebration at the Louisiana State Penitentiary, Angola, LA where 621 children spent the day with their incarcerated fathers. This video highlights 3 of those fathers. The RHC is a ministry of Awana Lifeline.

P.S. Most of the still photos were shot by photojournalism students from Union University, Jackson, TN. They did a great job! Kudos to writers: Angela Abbamonte, Jordan Buie, and Whitney Jones. Photographers; Cari Phillips, Josh Garcia and Rebekah Clayton. The writers also contributed some photos for a total (including mine) of 6,108 images. Professors Jim Veneman and Michael Chute coached and edited.
