To open the
blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in
darkness out of the prison house.
--Isaiah 42: 7
Prison Ministry tries to
meet the spiritual needs of women and men in prison by conducting communion
and prayer services and writing letters to those in prison. The members of
this ministry also train to offer support in teams to those released from
prison in order to help them re-enter society as productive citizens. To get
involved, contact Sandy Kreps at skreps50@yahoo.com.
"The use of the death penalty cannot really be mended. It
should be ended."--Cardinal Theodore E. McCarrick
