Elisha Haycock is raising money for The Message Trust

Team: MiP - Under the Stars

Under the stars for those behind bars · 18 June 2023

In schools, on stages, on streets and in prisons you'll find us sharing the love of Jesus in words and actions. Our focus is on the hardest-to-reach young people and communities across the UK and beyond.

Story



As the prisons team we're joining together and sleeping out under the stars (not as nice as it sounds) to raise money towards The Message Prisons Team.

We'll be braving the elements with little for protection other than some make shift coverings.

Please show us your support by sponsoring us through our personal JustGiving pages.

Each person taking part is representing their prison and area, therefore the money you donate to them will go back into their Message Hub. E.g. Wales Prison Team Member = ££ into the Wales Prison Hub


Why we're doing what we're doing...

Around 90,000 men, women and teenagers across the UK are currently serving prison sentences. With many of them finding themselves at the lowest point in their lives they need to hear about the hope Jesus offers them.

Day in, day out for the last 18 years, our Message in Prisons teams have been going into prisons sharing the good news of Jesus in word and deed.

Whilst sharing the gospel is at the heart of what the team do, this isn’t just through chapel services and Bible study groups.

Peacemaker courses teach individuals the skills they need to help them resolve conflict and manage their emotions; mentoring programmes equip them for life outside of prison and music classes provide a way that relationships can be built with prisoners.

Today we’re working in prisons throughout England and in Wales, and God is moving in prisons. Lives are being transformed forever as people find the hope and love Jesus offers.
