Effective Reentry Ministry for Ordinary Congregations

1. The Service Station Model says: You’ve been through a lot and we know you have a lot of needs right now. Come and get some of what you need 2. The Recovery Fellowship Model says: We’re on a journey from addiction to real freedom. Come and work your sobriety with us. 3. The Coach/Mentor Connection Model says: Reentry is tough to figure out on your own. Come and get connected to someone who can help you find your way and take your next steps. 4. The Peer-led Ministry Model says: We get you because we’ve been there and we’re just like you. Come for “church on the inside,” the outside version. 5. The Jail to Congregation Pipeline Model says: We’ve already connected on the inside. Come and join us on the outside. 6. The Life-Changing Small Group Model says: God’s already been at work in your life. Come and keep growing spiritually and as a leader in a wel- coming and supportive group setting. 7. The Whole Family Support Model says: Come with your family. We’re here for all of you. 8. The Mission Station Model says: You have a lot to offer. Come with your passion, gifts, and skills, and let’s make a difference together.
