Approximately 200 men and women incarcerated in the RSW Regional Jail are released every year. These people need models of Christianity to help them return to the community as worthy citizens. A few hours of your time could make a permanent difference in their lives. They need guidance and practical support to obtain basic aspects of life (e.g. clothing, a place to live, work and transportation arranged by Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Arlington) as well as mentorship. If you are interested in learning more, visit the Diocese’s Prison Ministry website or contact Keith Henderson (571-236-2878, henderson.keith01@gmail.com).
Mark your calendar and reach out to the Council’s POC to offer your assistance. No POC? If you’re called to do so, please step up.
Your efforts on behalf of the Council’s charitable works are greatly appreciated. Please report your individual efforts through the “2020 Survey of Fraternal Activities” or by contacting Brother Leo Carling (540-631-7555).
