Every Christmas, thousands of churches like yours help brighten the lives of countless children through Angel Tree, a program of Prison Fellowship. Purchasing, wrapping, and delivering gifts to prisoners’ children on their behalf not only delivers a message of love from parent to child, but also the true meaning of Christmas—the good news of Jesus Christ.

But Angel Tree doesn’t end with Christmas.

For you and your church, that first Christmas connection can be the beginning of a rewarding ongoing relationship with these children and their families. Continue your Angel Tree ministry throughout the year and God will use your church to help these children and their families grow in their faith, strengthen their relationships with imprisoned parents, and fulfill the purposes that God has for their lives. There are many opportunities to reach out to these families and enfold them into the life of your church.

Prison Fellowship also provides training, tools, and resources to help your church extend and deepen its Angel Tree ministry in two specific ways: camping and mentoring.

Family Embraced is a tool kit developed by Angel Tree to help churches take that next step of investment in the lives of prisoners’ children, their caregivers, and their incarcerated parents. It includes a creative combination of videos, facilitated small-group discussions, and group activities that makes it easy to use and flexible. There are eight sessions, which can be covered sequentially and in their entirety, or in a pick-and choose fashion as best fits a church’s needs and interests.

Family Embraced  includes:

• DVD: Eight 20-minute segments that begin each session. These include moving, informative interviews from the real experts—prisoners’ children, their caregivers, incarcerated parents, and those who minister to them.
• Facilitator’s Guide: Walks the facilitator through the process of leading the sessions, including the use of icebreakers, video discussion questions, and learning exercises.
• Participant Guide: Allows participants to follow along and make personal notes. Downloadable from the CD/DVD, so facilitators can print as many as they need.
