Ministry to Prisoners


Ministering to those in Lancaster Co. Prison
This ministry of visitation to which I have been called has shown me that the Lord Jesus can be found there, in the broken lives of young people. I’ve seen and heard stories of pain, anger, and grief. These are people who have broken the law, are facing the consequences, and also need to be shown love and compassion. There is little reform and rehab available for them. Shouldn’t people come out of prison better than when they went in? Shouldn’t that be a social goal? Repentance and transformation of life is characteristic of the Christian life before GOD.
I invite you to become an encourager and spiritual friend by sending mail to one of the men I have been visiting. The mail cannot include items such as, cash, newspaper clippings or photo copies. All mail is searched for unauthorized items prior to the inmate receiving it. You may not drop off any correspondence to inmates, it must go through the mail. Please sign only with your first name. If you wish to receive a response, please use the church’s address for a return address and we will forward responses to you. Thank you for sharing your faith in GOD with these children of GOD, who need the compassionate justice of Christ in their lives.
