The Hustler Files Ep 74
AT THE INTERSECTION OF FAITH, JUSTICE & INCARCERATION
Prison Fellowship is approaching their 50th anniversary, but when Founder, Chuck Colson, President Nixon’s ‘hatchet man’ launched Prison Fellowship, he himself had just served 7 months for his involvement in Watergate. While incarcerated, Colson was inspired to help restore lives and families broken by crime and incarceration. He thought Prison Fellowship would only last 5 years. So, who is Prison Fellowship? It’s a National Ministry established on the biblical belief that all people are made in God’s image with inherent dignity and potential. From Warden Exchange Programs to the Angel Tree Program for children with incarcerated parents, Prison Fellowship can reach thousands of incarcerated individuals through local churches and their volunteers who are managed by a Prison Fellowship Church Mobilization team. While there are other ministries across the U.S., Prison Fellowship is the largest, and like President and CEO, Heather Rice-Minus says, “..once you’ve experienced a Prison Fellowship behind bars, you’ll forever be changed…”.
