Ozarks Hebrew Heritage Celebrating the Hebrew Roots of our Faith

Jail Happenings

The ministry has branched out into serving the needs of the incarcerated.  Recognizing there are ministries which meet with the inmates every weekend, we found a need to help the inmates throughout the week.  Midweek meetings have been suspended at the Carroll County (Ar) Jail where we minister but weekday individual visitation is allowed. 

Since salvation issues are ususally handled on the weekend, our goal has been to promote spiritual growth during the intervening weekdays.  To this end, we are providing reading materials, study guides, weekly Torah Portions, and personal guidance.  We have found it to be a fertile field with few planters and harvesters. 

Through the individual training, we have been able to enable small groups to form within the jail.  In many cases, these groups study together daily.  Of course, the thrust of the ministry is to promote the study and understanding of the ENTIRE BIBLE. 

As time goes on we will be posting updates on various prisoners progress.  Our purpose is to help others around the country benefit from our trial and error.  As we develop materials and ideas they will be posted here and we hope others will feel free to post their success stories as well.
