PRISON MINISTRY

"In Matthew 25, Jesus says, 'I was in prison, and you visited me.' He calls upon His followers to minister to those who are behind bars. In other words, we will be judged in part by the way we treat those who are in prison. The fact that a man has committed a crime, and is paying the price, does not mean that he forfeits his God-given dignity."
-Chuch Colson (Justice Report, 1977, "High-Voltage Humiliation"

There are a number of ways to serve with the Prison Ministry:
Angel Tree (A ministry of Prison Fellowship; gifts to the children of those incarcerated)
Rock Of Ages Ministry (Christmas stockings to inmates)
More recently, Lane County Jail, with their many needs to witness to those housed in our community.

If God leads you to give to this important ministry, please mark your tithing envelope, check or online giving to "Prison Ministry." When you give you may not ever know how it impacts a life, but be assured it will!
