Song of Jonah Ministry

Song of Jonah Ministries is reaching out to break Georgia's 80% recidivism (prison return rate).

Song of Jonah Ministries works in conjunction with Set Free After-Care Ministries, the Jacob House Project and the Dept of Corrections Faith Based Character Development Program. Their primary goal is to direct the formerly incarcerated to a structured Christian environment designed to motivate and assist men and women recovering from life crises, incarceration, addictive behaviors, brokenness and homelessness.

The program is designed to help participants back to a healthy thought pattern and a better way of living by employing Christian principals. The focus is directed to the physical, mental and spiritual rehabilitation; growth by character building; accepting responsibility and becoming productive in society. Song of Jonah Ministries offers an environment that encourages the desire to be self-sufficient individuals; anchored in Christ; capable of taking care of themselves and to eventually be able to pass along a “good Samaritan love” to their neighbors.

The fruits of Song of Jonah Ministries are obvious. Those who have participated in the Faith and Character Initiative of this ministry have resulted in a success rate of more than 87% compared to 20% for those who have not had the opportunity to be involved.

Today there are over 500 individuals in prison that could be released if they only had an acceptable address; some who have been waiting over two years.

There are many areas to be involved with this ministry. For  more information, please visit Song of Jonah Ministries website.
