Support the Prison Newspaper Ministry

Jesus accepts us just the way we are. Even the thief on the cross was forgiven and is in paradise with Jesus! There are many lost souls behind bars who do not know Jesus nor of His great love and power to change lives.

Sharing Outreach Ideas
Community Service
Community service is exactly what it sounds like: services that you do to benefit your community. If that sounds a little broad, it’s because it is -- community service can take a lot of different forms since there’s SO much you can do to help folks out in your area. These are ideas that can be used throughout the year.

We have collected over 80 service idea. This is part 2. Part 3 will be out next month.
