PRISON FELLOWSHIP: Church of St. Dismas

One of the most beautiful churches in upstate New York is the Church of St. Dismas, The Good Thief, in Dannemora. Built between 1939 and 1941, this Neogothic-inspired stone chapel boasts massive oak doors and an impressive spire.

The church stands on the grounds of Clinton Correctional Facility, a short distance from the prison’s outer walls.
