Metanoia Prison Ministries

Discipleship and outreach to prisoners.

About the Ministry

Metanoia Prison Ministries offers churches the opportunity to develop a discipleship and outreach ministry for prisoners in their own communities. We offer the key tools for an all-inclusive ministry including evangelism, discipleship and reintegration of prisoners. Correspondence courses are offered to prisoners by our churches, using the curriculum Metanoia provides. Since we have developed these courses ourselves, they represent biblical study in the reformed tradition, and they take the student from the very basics of the faith to advanced levels.
