Over 2 million people—parents, siblings, children, neighbors, friends—are locked away, cut off from the land of the living.

 
 
 

Mass incarceration has created mass disconnection for generations of communities in America.

 
 

We are building a grassroots movement of new relationships — a new department of connections.

 
 

We open new relationships of embrace and trust between the incarcerated and the communities to which they return — for our mutual transformation and resurrection.

 
 
 

In Washington State, there are roughly the same amount of churches as there are people in prison.

What if every church built a relationship of mutual embrace and trust with just one person releasing to their area then walking with them as they emerged from the tombs of incarceration?

We have launched scores of One Parish One Prisoner teams to do just that. We’re building a resurrection movement.

 
 

“I’m ready to welcome someone who’s hurt others, like I was hurt. Like they were probably hurt. I can welcome them and help them grow–and they can help me grow.”

Underground Healing:
LOCAL GANG REENTRY

OUR RESURRECTION PRACTICE IN SKAGIT VALLEY, WA—SINCE 2005

 
 

One Parish One Prisoner’s entire curriculum springs from our historical and ongoing work of relationship and reentry among gang-impacted families here in Washington State’s Skagit Valley.

Men we’ve accompanied home from prison over the years are now leading our local reentry work.
