Looking Back With Gratitude, Looking Ahead With Hope
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” Psalm 107:1

Reflection


As we reflect on this past year, our hearts are filled with gratitude for God’s faithfulness and provision. Even within the walls of the jail, His goodness has been evident. During this season, we are reminded that the gift of Christ - God’s greatest act of love—continues to bring hope, light, and restoration to those who may feel forgotten.

 

Throughout the year, God has opened doors for ACPM to share His Word, provide pastoral care, and walk alongside incarcerated men and women during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. We have witnessed individuals encounter Scripture for the first time, experience renewed faith, and begin the journey toward reconciliation with God and others.

 

We are deeply thankful for YOU. Your prayers, generosity, and faithful partnership have made it possible to provide Bibles, Christian resources, and meaningful programs, as well as tangible expressions of Christ’s love - when separation from loved ones can feel most painful. Because of your support, inmates are reminded that they are seen, valued, and not beyond God’s redeeming grace.

 

Vision


As we look ahead to the coming year, we do so with hope and confidence in what God will continue to do. Our vision remains steadfast: to proclaim the love of Christ, nurture spiritual restoration, and encourage reconciliation - both within the facility and beyond its walls.

In the year ahead, ACPM seeks to expand discipleship opportunities, strengthen pastoral presence, and continue programs that connect faith with lasting transformation. We are committed to sowing seeds of hope that reach far beyond incarceration and into families and communities.

 

As we close this year, I want to say thank you for standing with us as we follow where He leads. Together, we give thanks for what God has done and look forward with faith to all He will do.

 

In His Love, Director of Christian Ministries Rachel DuPhily
