The Great Commission ……..

A Pastoral ministry to a microcosm of disadvantage ….

Why ?

Avoid classification. It reinforces judgement of “them” by “us”Focus on more than job skills and education

as a means of rehabilitation, other wise they become benchmarks for acceptance, significance and security.

Children who have suffered abuse, neglect, trauma, and attachment loss need more than behavioural modification programs. If they are to have any chance of mental health as adults and to break the cycle of disadvantage, they must experience a secure relationship of trust in which they know they are accepted and significant in the eyes of a respected care giver.

All programs must be designed to enable individual decisions,rather than creating a dependent or sympathetic relationships.

Communities need not regard ex-offenders as a ‘risk forever’.This view can only be changed by success stories of engagement as we focus on the person, not the prisoner, and address the underlying causes of behaviour that come from the internal toxic environment.
