Davidson Prison Ministry (DPM) formed in the fall of 1985 to provide hope and healing to offenders and staff at Davidson Correctional Center.  DPM chaplaincy and ministry services still seek to be “salt and light” to a broken and hurting community.

​DPM is driven by the belief that every human being is created in the image of God and therefore has intrinsic dignity and potential.

​By supporting this ministry, you demonstrate your desire to help offenders make a permanent change in their lives which has the potential of profoundly impacting the lives of children, families, and communities.  The positive impact on society when one person’s life is transformed is immeasurable.

FACT

The United States incarcerates more men and women than any other country.
​7 in 10 of post release offenders will return to prison in just 3 short years. 

HOPE

Prison is a place of punishment but God can use it as a place to refine, reshape and transform the lives of offenders.
God does not give up on those in prison and neither should we!
