The Office for Prison Ministry evangelizes to the incarcerated and their families, aiming to foster encounters with Christ that inspire conversion and alleviate spiritual struggles. Supported by dedicated volunteers, the office sustains their mission to spread the Gospel’s joy in jails and prisons, recognizing each interaction as an encounter with Christ that strengthens Church solidarity.
Our teams bring the light of Christ and Hope to our incarcerated men and women. In providing Sacraments, personal prayer, Bible studies and Liturgy of the Word services, we foster communion with the living Christ to transform hearts.
Growing faith, finding belonging, and empowering the Youth through supportive programs and mentorship to live with hope and purpose.
