Giving Back to Our Community
At Inmates of the Cross, giving back to our community isn’t just an activity; it’s a motivation for change, healing, and growth. For those on the receiving end, it provides much-needed support, hope, and the realization that they are not alone in their struggles.
Families of the incarcerated can feel disconnected from their communities. Inmates of the Cross provides aid by creating a sense of belonging through outreach programs, allowing families to connect with others in similar situations and providing them with a network of support.
Many families face financial strain due to the loss of income from an incarcerated family member. When incarcerated individuals know that their families are being cared for, they are more likely to focus on rehabilitation and making a positive return to society.
By ministering to the needs of families, hope is restored along with the message of God’s love, providing families with faith and a sense of purpose during challenging times.
We at Inmates of the Cross stand as a witness to the power of service, a beacon of hope that lights the way for a better future.
Clothing The Indigent
Mission Statement
To provide new or freshen clothing for indigent inmates under our ministry scope prior to their release from incarceration and post-release. It has always been a dire need for those being released from the Orange County Jail, that is, to have new or freshen clothing to put on at the point of their release.
We believe that as we live and teach newness in Christ it is a tremendous encouragement for those individuals being released from jail to be newly clothed.
Hope For Indigent Families
Stepping out from behind a screen to engage personally to “get our hands dirty” to do the hard relational work necessary to bring healing and hope to the lives of people who need it through providing community resources and the love of God.
This work of God is without a doubt the most rewarding, joyful, graceful and compassionate service to our community. Yes, it is so much more a blessing to give and meet the needs of others. Acts. 20:35 – “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
