MCSO Chaplains

Jail Chaplains are divinely called to minister to individuals within the correctional setting. Jail Chaplains provide spiritual and growth enhancement opportunities to inmates of all persuasions. We act as a resource between inmates and the community, family, religious providers, and the professional field. We also desire to provide to any inmate the spiritual and motivational foundation to re-enter the community with changed, positive behavior.
