In order to give prisoners spiritual support during their incarceration, Dismas Ministry provides them with the free Catholic scripture, faith and prayer resources they need to restore their relationship with God and the Church.
As an organization that is run completely by donations, we provide our resources in the spirit of Christ’s gospel, “What you have received freely, give freely” ~ Matthew 10:8.
If a prisoner would like to receive any of our materials at no cost, they must write to us directly to request a materials brochure. Once we receive their request, we will mail them a materials brochure with an authorization form to be completed by the facility. Once we receive the completed brochure and authorization form, we then send the requested items at no charge. Go to our Inmate Services page to learn more.
Our ordering process for prisoners is dictated by the jail, prison and detention system. We have to follow their guidelines to insure safe delivery of resources.
We provide chaplains and prison ministers with these same free Catholic resources. We are an organization that is run completely by donations therefore, we ask that if your organization or group has a budget for these needed materials and can help support our mission, please order through our website store.
If your organization does not have a budget and you would like to receive any of our materials at no cost, requests for materials must be made through the contact form on our website. (We will no longer accept requests via email. All requests for our Catholic resources MUST be made through the contact form on our website or ordered through our website store.)
Thank you for being valuable members of our Prison Ministry Network. The good you do in the world is exemplified by the good works you do in our communities. You are our feet on the ground and help us spread the Word of God as the Gospel calls us to do!
