2020 Angel Tree
The ABSC Missions Team is pleased to help connect Arkansas Baptists with Project Angel Tree®.
Angel Tree®, a program of Prison FellowshipTM, reaches out to the children of prisoners and their families with the love of Christ. Through Angel Tree, volunteers are mobilized to deliver a gift, the Gospel, and a personal message of love to children on behalf of their mom or dad in prison. Every Angel Tree parent’s family is also given access to a free, easy-to-read copy of the Bible (available in English or Spanish). It starts with a gift and leads to restored relationships.
For 2020, there are several ways, including COVID-friendly ways, that your church can get involved. Hear from a former inmate and participant of Prison Fellowship's Angel Tree program!
