The Licking County Jail Ministries
“I was in prison, and you visited me." -Jesus
The Licking County Jail Ministries is a non-profit organization serving the needs of inmates in the Licking County Justice Center since 1989. This ministry is the responsibility of all churches in Licking County-INCLUDING US!
There are many ways to serve in this Ministry including:
1. Be A Friend or one-on-one mentoring with an inmate
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The inmate requests to see a “religious volunteer” and then someone will call you and give you the opportunity to accept that person as your Be A Friend. If you are unable to take someone you simply don’t accept. However, when you are available you are given the opportunity to go in and witness to a person who is seeking the Good News that the volunteers for The Licking County Jail Ministries bring.
2. Pen Paling with an inmate
Writing a letter or sending a card to someone in need of the support and encouragement of a friend in Christ.
3. Aftercare to inmates upon release
Mentoring a former inmate, transporting him/her to Church, phone support, etc…
4. Support to families of incarcerated individuals
The 2nd Sunday of each month there is a meal where the family members can come together to support each other and be encouraged by volunteers like us.
