Our ministry is a support system for the prisoners. It helps with food and other fundamental necessities when possible. We contact family members here in Senegal and when possible in other countries in Africa such as South Africa, Nigeria, and Zimbabwe.
Introduce inmates to Jesus Christ. Teach inmates useful skills to aid rehabilitation. Provide one on one and group counselling. Work with inmates on socialization skills. Visit inmates homes to encourage families members to be active in the lives of their incarcerated loved ones. Visit court and meet with judges and attorneys to advocate on behalf to the inmates. Maintain contact with released inmates to assist in reintroduction into society. Establish prison outreach ministries in all of the United Methodist churches in Senegal.
By encouraging young offenders to warn their sibling and family about the risks of incarceration and by helping them find and alternative to illegal activity we hope to start a reduction in the incarceration rate.
