Prison Preaching

DSC_0458

Here’s me preaching in a low security prison to a local man who lives on site. He’s not actually a prisoner, but lives with a family member who works as a guard. His name’s Robert.

The prison is intended as a demonstration of how prisoners can be used to do productive work. The small population of the prison consists of offenders who are already near the end of a longer sentence, so there’s little reason to attempt an escape.

They keep ducks and hens and plant crops and, to some extent, pay for their keep by means of the work.
