“Prison Fellowship taught [me to] be a better person through and through—and more importantly, it got me closer to God.”
—Woody
During the time Woody served in prison, he decided to take a leap of faith and join Prison Fellowship® Academy. Not only did the Academy help him discover how he could serve God, but it also opened his eyes to another reality: his passion for art.
If someone had told him when he was first incarcerated that the very artwork he created on the inside would one day finance his wedding on the outside—a wedding officiated by the pastor he would meet while incarcerated—he wouldn’t have believed it.
But Woody’s wild story is not only true. It’s part of his testimony.
Incarceration is a complex issue, and Prison Fellowship serves to put our holistic ministry model to work. God has used our programs in Nebraska to help thousands of people affected by incarceration experience the Gospel. Find out how this model is delivering hope and transformation in Nebraska.
