CORE VALUES
GOD
God is the center of everything Prison Ministry related.
Mark 12:30-31
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.
- God's agendas are the number one priority and driving force behind why we do what we do.
- We will continually give God the right to break into our lives, our meetings, and our agendas to change the direction at any time in order to accomplish His ultimate plan for New Vision Prison Ministry.
FAMILY
The family of volunteers will have ample opportunity to be discipled for the purpose of making disciples within the inmate population.
Colossians 1:28-29
He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.
- NVPM volunteers will operate like a family to uphold, strengthen, love, offer grace, disciple and hold each other accountable to the biblical model of community while offering Gospel Transformation to inmates.
COMMUNITY
Inmates within the scope of NVPM influence will have an opportunity to prepare for integration back into their respective communities through a variety of tactics and leadership. Our primary goal for each inmate is to connect with a church family through intentional outreach efforts and be discipled to experience Gospel Transformation within a local body of believers.
Matthew 28:18-20
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
- NVPM will be intentional to be involved in activities for families and inmates at the RCCWC, RCADC, as well as provide opportunities to participate in events at New Vision.
