THE GOALS OF OSL ARE TO:

Evangelize

To share the Gospel with those in prison by every effective means available to us; and to equip followers of Jesus in prison and out to do the same.

Disciple

• To mentor and serve those in prison who follow Christ so they may be transformed into His likeness and reconciled to others; and to equip followers of Christ in prison and out to do the same.
  


• To mentor and serve those who leave prison to ensure they do not return; and to equip the church to do the same

Collaborate

Be the recognized leading collaborative movement in seeking the transformation of prisoners and their reconciliation to God, Family and Community through the power and truth of Jesus Christ and a dependence on consistent, intentional prayer.

The mission and goals are accomplished through committees that include: evangelism, outreach, networking, re-entry, discipleship and materials.

The collaboration of ministries offers materials, curriculum and training to volunteers, churches, prisoners and Chaplains. Some of the offerings include evangelistic events, Bibles, fathering seminars, prayer seminars, correspondence Bible studies, evangelism training for inmates, Christian devotional libraries, in-prison events connecting a child or family with their incarcerated loved one, discipleship training, pen pal ministry, re-entry support, outreach to Chaplains and Correctional staff and other ministry-specific programs such as Angel Tree offered by Prison Fellowship.
