Prison Ministry

The Gospel calls us to visit those in prisons and jails. “I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” (Matthew 25:35-36) 

The Archdiocesan Ministry to the Incarcerated seeks to address that calling by providing pastoral care and a healing presence to the incarcerated and by making the Catholic community aware of their needs.
