The Detention Ministry: Empowering transformation through serving Christ among Adults in Custody (AIC) and Minors in Custody (MIC)
The Office of Detention Ministry, with its team of trained volunteers, embodies the Church's mission of evangelization—bringing the transformative message of Jesus Christ to AIC & MIC. Recognized as a reflection of Christ, each person within the criminal and immigration justice system is seen not just as an inmate but as someone capable of healing and transformation through divine love.
1. Evangelization:
Proclaim the Gospel to adults and minors in custody, form faith communities in each facility, and tailor pastoral care to local needs.
2. Catholic Social Action:
Support victims, families, and former inmates; promote crime prevention; and assist in reintegration after release.
3. Restorative Justice Advocacy:
Educate parishes, engage in civic efforts for reform, and collaborate with legal offices to foster justice and healing.
