Prison Ministry

I signed up last week to make lunches for our church's prison ministry. We live about 15 miles from a women's correctional facility and often times during the year, the children of the inmates go to visit their moms. Our church volunteered to deliver lunches for the children to eat while they had their visit and I thought it might be a neat activity for Anna and I to make the lunches together. We went to the grocery store and picked out items that would appeal to children -Anna had great input on this. Once home, we made the lunches together and Anna designed little notes to put in each brown paper bag (which she decorated as well). It brought about good discussion such as what is jail like? Can children go to jail? What will the children do there? It was a nice time together, her and I and I think we will sign up to do it again.
