Tonight we had a presentation by some folks representing Prison Fellowship. There are many prison ministries, though the one I am most acquainted with is Prison Fellowship. They, and other prison ministires are always looking for Christians like you to for outreach, Bible studies and life skills, delivery teams, and mentoring and accountability.

This video and news story from News 4 Jacksonville was shown tonight at our church. 30% of ex-cons say religion kept them successful, out of jailStudy: Religion keeps ex-cons on track | News - Home

I have a great respect for Chuck. While not affiliated with his ministry I have been involved in a ministry in our local county jail for about 15 years now. I also join a ministry when I can down the road at the state prison. It is a real blessing to see God work in the lives of men and women who have lost so much.
