To be a voice for the voiceless
To remove the stigma of writing to prisoners, to humanize them, and to share the hope of Christ with those the world has forgotten.
Our mission, first and foremost, is to remove the stigma of writing to prisoners. To humanize them, and highlight their potential to be fully rehabilitated and transformed by the love of Christ, and your letters of hope and mercy.
Jesus Christ not only gave us the beautiful parable of the good Samaritan, but He also said “whatever you have done for the least of these, my brethren, you have done unto me” (the Gospel according to Saint Matthew 25). The first time Julian read this in solitary confinement, he was heavily convicted! “What have I been doing my whole life?”
“Whatever you have done for the least of these, my brethren, you have done unto me.”The Gospel according to Saint Matthew 25
The plight of our Catholic brothers and sisters
It is our mission to highlight how Catholic materials are being heavily suppressed in our prison system and how our Catholic brothers and sisters are being neglected, even by Catholics themselves. While this ministry is for EVERYONE, we mainly focus on this plight.
Many in prison, who are not Christian, are studying the Holy Bible, with the sole purpose of twisting it around and leading the weak in faith astray. We also sadly see this in our country.
It is our mission to share this message and to hope and pray that you also will come to see Christ in these prisoners, and to see them through the eyes of Christ.
Five to ten minutes can change a life
It is our mission to reach as many souls as possible with the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and the hope of His gospel. It literally takes 5–10 minutes to write a thoughtful note to a prisoner, and they appreciate it so much! You don't have to give away any personal info — refer to our frequently asked questions.
There are many prisoners who are desperately seeking some hope, some who have absolutely nobody in this world, some who are seeking rehabilitation and to amend their lives; and our system is miserably failing them. It is up to us to fill in that void.
By writing to these prisoners, we are in no way justifying what they did or what they're in prison for, but extending the mercy of Christ to them, because NO ONE is beyond the grace of Our God.
Mercy is love when it's least deserved.
“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
The letter of Saint Paul to the church at Rome 5:8
A voice for the voiceless
It is our mission to be a voice for the voiceless. To speak up about the atrocious and subhuman medical care in our prison system, that Julian has been a personal victim of — almost dying of a blood clot in Danbury, CT; the non-existent psychological care, and the barbaric treatment that MANY inmates get on a daily basis.
Will you give five minutes a month?
PLEASE pray about this, and we truly hope that you find it in your heart to take 5–10 minutes a month to write to a prisoner and pray for them. And please pray for Emmanuel A.D. as well, as we continue on this journey and mission with you.
After much prayer, we have consecrated Emmanuel A.D. to Our Lady of Fatima and Saint Joseph Cafasso.
