Prison Ministry
Our presence affirms to the incarcerated that God has not abandoned them. "I was in prison and you visited me." God calls us to understand that whatever we do unto the least of our brethren, we do unto Him. The imprisoned are among the least of our brethren and are also among the most neglected in our society today.
As the bishops of the U.S. Catholic Conference indicated in their recent declaration on Restorative Justice, the imprisoned are sorely in need of support. Becoming involved in prison ministry affords individuals and organizations an opportunity to witness through their presence to the incarcerated.
