Atlantic Canada
Atlantic Region
PFC is thrilled about the momentum that is continuing to build throughout the Atlantic Region for both institutional engagement and new volunteer recruitment. PFC is actively seeking to mobilize and equip new teams from local churches to partner with us to serve prisoners, ex-prisoners, their families, and victims. Pray with us as we seek God’s direction and provision.
New Brunswick
In New Brunswick, there are 9 provincial, federal and youth institutions combined, where PFC seeks to be connected to prisoners.
PFC’s Faith & Justice program, including the Sycamore Tree program, is an important tool for restorative ministry. PFC’s Bridgecare reintegration program is also active throughout New Brunswick, with PFC teams ready to provide spiritual friendship and practical mentoring to ex-prisoners coming from all parts of the Atlantic region. In New Brunswick, All five provincial jails are running the PFC by Phone program.
In the most recent Angel Tree program, 153 children received gifts from their prisoner parent at 7 participating institutions.
We are currently looking for new volunteers throughout the province for Bridgecare ministry opportunities. If you live in Miramichi, Moncton, Shediac or Saint John, please consider joining our in-prison ministry.
Newfoundland
The province of Newfoundland houses prisoners in 5 provincial jails. Through the support of church partners, we seek to be connected to these locations through in-prison, Bridgecare, PFC by Phone, and Angel Tree programs. Our team of volunteers in St John’s and its environs are trained in these programs, including The Sycamore Tree Restorative Justice programming.
The most recent Angel Tree program connected 101 children to their prisoner parent through gifts delivered by generous sponsors. Our Faith & Justice series including The Forgiveness Journey run at several institutions in the province including Her Majesty’s Penitentiary in St John’s and Newfoundland and Labrador Women’s Correctional in Clarenville.
Please pray with us as we seek God’s direction and provision. If you live in Newfoundland, please consider serving with us as a volunteer. We would love to have you.
