Volunteers are the key to the fulfilment of Prison Fellowship's vision and the Churches' mission.
Our volunteers come from all areas of the Christian community and seek to show the love of Christ to prisoners, ex-prisoners, victims and their families. Volunteers gather in local Prison Fellowship prayer groups that work in conjunction with prison chaplains and local churches.
If you and your church sense God leading you into any kind of prison-related ministry-seeking the transformation of prisoners and their reconciliation to God, family, and community-Prison Pastor is ready to help.
Prison Pastor offers thorough training as well as ongoing support and encouragement for in-prison and post-prison ministry, as well as training for outreach to the families of prisoners, especially their children.
For more information on Ptraining, contact us.
Here are many ways volunteers get involved:
- Visiting prisoners

- Helping present values-based programmes in prison
- Buying Christmas presents for the children of prisoners
- Supporting a prisoner's family
- Helping a released prisoner
- Sharing experiences of being a victim of crime with prisoners
