“Remember those in prisons as if you were their fellow prisoner.”
Heb. 13:3 NJV
For it was Jesus who declared: "I was in prison and you came to me."
Matthew 25:36 NASB
UNLESS INMATES RECEIVE THE NECESSARY TOOLS TO BREAK FREE FROM THEIR BONDAGE OF SIN AND MENTAL IMPRISONMENT, the cycle of crime and punishment will continue.
As long as the cycle of crime and punishment continue, UPMI will continue to scatter the seeds of truth, and along the way new lives will emerge—free in Christ, growing stronger every day in His Holy Word.
By training inmates to teach and share what they’ve learned from the UPMI What the Bible Says study guides and other life-changing literature and programs, seeds are planted that will continue to grow long after the prisoner has been released. Reformed inmates become 24-hour-a-day influencers for change, teaching fellow inmates to become better citizens—not better criminals.
