PRISON OUTREACH PROJECT

Prison Outreach Project

Mission Agape, in collaboration with Georgia's Ware State Prison, has embarked on a transformative initiative known as the Prison Outreach project. Twice a year, during the vibrant seasons of spring and fall, we organize memorable day-long outreach programs coupled with nourishing food service. These occasions have become the pinnacle of excitement for both our devoted members and the incarcerated individuals.

With great enthusiasm, we gather a dedicated group of 50-70 volunteers from Atlanta and journey to Waycross. Our collective mission is to extend a helping hand to the inmates, starting the day on a light note by preparing a wholesome breakfast for approximately 250 individuals. This act of kindness lays the groundwork for a day filled with hope, compassion, and genuine connection. The true highlight for many of the inmates occurs during lunchtime when we present our renowned golden baked chicken, a trademark dish that brings comfort and delight. The savory meal is accompanied by the enchanting melodies of a skilled saxophonist, providing a captivating backdrop for an unforgettable dining experience.

As the afternoon unfolds, our focus turns to heartfelt testimonies, soul-stirring songs, and spontaneous dance. These powerful expressions of faith and unity create an atmosphere of profound impact and touch the lives of both the inmates and our dedicated volunteers. It is within these moments that barriers are broken, hearts are opened, and lasting connections are forged. These extraordinary events transcend the confines of prison walls, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of all involved. The Prison Outreach project serves as a beacon of hope, fostering compassion and understanding, while offering a unique opportunity for personal transformation and growth.
