Prison Ministry
Prison ministry is a very unique ministry. There are a number of different prison teams at WOLBI that go into prisons from south of Albany up to the Canadian border with a group called Prison Fellowship. They go usually twice a quarter, and spend the whole weekend with the prisoners in a seminar. There is one head lecturer who leads the meeting, and the WOLBI guys are considered volunteers. After the speaker speaks, the prisoners are split up into small groups and the WOLBI guys get to talk to them one on one. This is an opportunity to present
the Gospel in a clear and simple fashion, and answer any questions they have. These prisoners, people that society has just written off, are looking for answers to life, and how they can stay out of prison. Many of the prisoners have read the Bible, and can quote lots of scripture, so our guys have to stay on their toes. As they look into the prisoners of ten cold and distant eyes, they do their best to reach out and give the answers to life from God's Word. They realize that whether free or bond, all people need the Lord.
