PRISION MINISTRY OF UPSTATE NEW YORK

Sharing the message of love, healing and transformation.

Our mission is to provide spiritual, educational and financial support to enable Christian volunteers to minister to incarcerated individuals and share Jesus’ message of love, mercy, healing, forgiveness and reconciliation.

Prison Ministry of Upstate New York is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit operating under the Ecumenical Ministries of Perinton. We strive to help incarcerated men, women and adolescents capitalize on their inner potential so they can heal and change.

We believe in basic spiritual truths that can flourish where there is awareness, reconciliation and personal responsibility. We seek to empower and help prisoners navigate the complexities of their current situations.

Our programs have no formal expectations and all participants volunteer to attend. Our goal is to help individuals process their own journey. We strongly believe that a personal commitment to self-improvement must be made before there can be change and transformation.
