PRISON EVENTS
Special Prison Events
FREEDOM RALLIES
Gospel Echoes Teams, in a joint effort with volunteers from local churches, share the Gospel through special weekend events. Freedom Rallies include music, preaching, literature distribution, one-on-one visitation, fellowship, outdoor concerts, and, where possible, a picnic cookout meal.
These events emphasize evangelism and outreach to prison inmates. Freedom Rallies bring the local church in contact with the area prisons
COOKIE PROJECTS
The Cookie Project is a special outreach to prisoners each year just before Christmas. It’s an opportunity to bring some cheer and a message of hope to prisoners during the loneliest time of the year.
Over a thousand families are involved in baking cookies and signing Christmas cards with words of hope. Each package includes homemade cookies, a scripture address booklet and a signed card. The goal is to give every inmate and all staff in the facility a package of cookies. This is an opportunity to reach the entire population in a prison, not just those who would attend a special service.
Hundreds of volunteers assist in the distribution, with many opportunities to go cell to cell and personally hand out the cookies. This ministry of giving has made a powerful impact as inmates and staff are reminded of God’s love.
WE NEED YOU!
