ANGEL TREE

SAME PURPOSE , DIFFERENT PROCESS, SAME PEOPLE
We again have a tremendous opportunity to love on numerous families through our Angel Tree ministry. There are a number of ways that you can be involved and together we will further build genuine friendships and expand our opportunities to encourage children in our community, a parent in prison, and caregivers with the love of Jesus.
ABOUT ANGEL TREE
Angel Tree, a ministry of Prison Fellowship, seeks to connect parents in prison with their children. By purchasing, wrapping, and delivering gifts to kids on behalf of the incarcerated parent, we help remind children of the love their mom or dad has for them. This ministry provides us the opportunity to build genuine friendships and to encourage the parent in prison, the child, and their caregivers with the love of Jesus.
