Throughout its 46 years, the team has conducted monthly prison chapel services besides various other programs, including Detention Centers, Drug Rehabilitations, Work Release Centers, Prison Hospice Facilities. The ratio was about 90% for prison institutions and 10% for youth facilities.
When first founding the ministry in 1975, there were only a handful of prison ministries; JGM met a great need through the past 46 years. This organization's prison ministry and taking in other volunteer groups that branched out into their very own prison ministry. There is a more significant crisis and need to help Florida's children at this point. Helping them before they end up on a troubled road that could lead them to prison. We feel the need to commit 100% to work with youth, those under the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, those in Residential Facilities, and those abandoned and have no family. The data for Florida is staggering. In 2020 Florida ranked #35 out of the 50 states in child welfare! This figure should be unacceptable! These children need us. 4,308,493 Florida KIDSFlorida Sheriff's Performing Child Protective Investigations Report of abuse, neglect or abandonment.

Mission Vehicle
We require a mission vehicle for the numerous facilities statewide. A cargo-passenger/van to carry food and donated items for the children, volunteers, equipment, and the necessary program supplies. We need insurance and operational funds to drive it. We have to rent this type of vehicle for these mission trips and would rather have the ministry put those funds in its cargo van. Since COVID, a mission representative contacted us about a local church selling their used small ministry bus. That would have worked great also, but we've not raised enough funds to date. The below thermometer will show our progress in reaching this worthy need. If you would like to help in this endeavor, please contact us or use the donate button here on the website. We are thankful for each dollar that you give.
