Important Volunteer Update 

As our outreach continues to grow, so does the amount of preparation needed to make these events possible. We are deeply grateful for all who volunteer their time to prepare and deliver meals, snacks, and cards to our incarcerated brothers and sisters.

Effective in 2027, volunteers who wish to participate in a jail delivery must also contribute at least three hours to preparing for that outreach.
Preparing cards, organizing snacks, assembling materials, and getting everything ready for delivery requires many helping hands. Asking our delivery volunteers to also participate in the preparation helps us share the workload and ensures that everyone has a meaningful role in making the outreach possible.

Bring the Family and Join Us

Our snack preparation and card-writing opportunities are open to the whole family. They are a wonderful way for children, parents, grandparents, and other family members to serve together while learning about compassion, human dignity, and our Christian call to care for those who are incarcerated.

Every card written, every snack prepared, and every hour volunteered helps make this ministry possible. What may seem like a simple act of service can be a powerful reminder to someone who is incarcerated that they are remembered, valued, and not alone.

Thank you for helping us put mercy into action and for sharing your time, compassion, and faith with our incarcerated brothers and sisters this holiday season.

We hope you and your family will join us!
