Overview

Mission

To glorify God by equipping incarcerated believers to multiply in and through churches worldwide. We provide spiritual guidance and discipleship training in state and federal prisons across the US and abroad. Our goal is to establish HM in every prison in the US and ultimately in every nation. To that end, we are currently training and recruiting a leadership team comprised of church leaders and volunteers from around the world. These leaders are from various vocations and church backgrounds and provide prison ministry seminars and training to churches local in their area. We currently have leaders in 48 States in America and are adding to our team daily. In addition to providing prison ministry seminars and clinics to the local church, HM has a very active role in modeling the implement.

What it reported doing in 2024

The non-profit organization continues to accomplish their mission of helping prison inmates and their families through the development of their spiritual, emotional & mental attitudes.
