Emanu EL Tabernacle got involved with the prison ministry in 2012.  The church visits the local prison twice a week to reach out to male and female prisoners.  The female prisoners are visited on Thursdays for service and Fridays to help the prison with programs geared to equip prisoners for life outside of prison.   The Male prisoners are visited Mondays and Fridays to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to reach out to the spiritual needs of the prisoners.

​

The gospel of Jesus Christ has been boldly preached and through the years many prisoners (male and female) have given their lives to Jesus Christ and have been baptized.    God has also touched prisoners in an awesome way through answered prayers and healings.

​

The ministry has seen murderers and rapists repenting of their sins and giving lives over to Jesus Christ for a new beginning in life.   God is indeed a merciful God Who deals with us according to His love and grace and not our deeds and what the world view as to what is fairness.    Is it fair that a rapist and a murderer get to be forgiven by God?  For sure not, but then again who can come before God without having sinned before.   Scripture makes it clear that the wages for sin is death (Romans 3).  We all deserved death, we all needed a savior. 

 

Due to prison regulations, we are not able to show your pictures of the inside of the prison, or of any of the prisoners, or use the names of the prisoners we are ministering to in any way or form.

​

However, we constantly receive new testimonies of what God is doing to change the lives of those on the inside; be it salvation, healing, deliverance or breakthrough.
