Prison Ministry will inspire you and those whose lives you will touch
We need people to help with our Seasons for Growth Programme in Rimutaka and Arohata Prisons.
Catholic prison chaplains help with the spiritual, cultural and social needs of all prisoners.
Seasons for Growth is an education and support programme for prisoners. It deals with Grief and Loss and achieves wonderful results among those who participate. It gives prisoners a voice and encourages the making of good, positive, life-giving choices for the future.
We ask that you reflect deeply on this invitation to a very special ministry. Even if this fulfilling work is not for you, you probably know someone who would be drawn to this chance to give professional and faith service.
For further information, or to express your interest or apply for this very rewarding ministry please contact:
Sr Veronica Casey PBVM, Senior Catholic Chaplain on 027 5233983. Email vcasey@nzcbc.org.nz
Full training and support are provided.
