Last updated: 2017-06-17 09:43:10

The Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America has issued a 2013 Prison Ministry Awareness Sunday Encyclical.  In part, they write: “We call on all Orthodox Christians -- both clergy and laity -- to emulate the faithfulness of the Apostle Luke by participating in the Church's ministry to those who are in prison, and by offering support and encouragement to all those who bring the Gospel of hope and salvation to the incarcerated.”  Read the entire encyclical HERE!
