Freedom Writers

Third Monday of the Month, recurring (Oct 20, Nov 17, Dec 15, 2025); 7:00-8:15 pm, Zoom

All Saints’ parishioners are each invited into a friendship with an individual incarcerated at a women’s facility in Georgia. Interested individuals are prepared through a letter writing training and participate in a regular time of reflective processing over Zoom with other All Saints’ letter writers, as we discuss what we are learning from our pen pals about the prison system and about ourselves. By building a relationship with an incarcerated person, letter writers will be meeting a basic need identified by those who are surviving prison, namely, a supportive relationship with others and connection to the outside world. Our letter writing is grounded in Jesus’s words that whatever we do for persons who are most vulnerable in our society, like those in prison, we do it to him (Matthew 25:36).
