Who We Are The Forgotten Man Ministries is a non-denominational, charitable organization established in 1966 with a mission to carry the gospel of Jesus Christ to inmates housed in the county jails of Michigan, USA. We are presently serving in 32 jails.
Our Vision Our primary purpose is the rehabilitation of inmates through the gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe this is best accomplished by providing a trained and commissioned chaplain to minister within the county jail environment. Our chaplains organize and oversee evangelistic programs within the jail, utilizing volunteers and provide Biblical counseling to inmates and staff.
Types Of Activity Our chaplains coordinate and oversee the following types of ministries in the jail: Bible distribution, Weekly worship services, Group Bible studies, Personal Biblical counseling, Correspondence Bible Courses, Bookcart & Literature ministries, Drug & Alcohol related programs, Video ministries, & special seasonal programs (ex. Christmas, Easter, etc.)
Location Presently serving in the county jails of Michigan, USA
Our magazine (newsletter)
Our monthly newsletter is called "Reaching the Forgotten". It is mailed out bi-monthly to those on our mailing list that totals over 17,000. It contains 6 full pages of information and reports from county chaplains in the field.
Books we have published
Am I Forgotten? (Publication given to inmates with a clear gospel presentation)
About Our Prison Ministry Forgotten Man Ministries is recognized by the Michigan Sheriff's Association and provides a 24 hour training class for volunteers in jail chaplaincy. The executive director of FMM is the designated chaplain to the Michigan Sheriff's Association. This class is taught regionally throughout the State of Michigan. Most sheriffs require this training before volunteers may minister in the county jail.
Support In 1. Monthly support needs for our missionary chaplains.
2. Volunteers to assist in a variety of jail ministries.
3. Godly wisdom & empowerment for our chaplains & volunteers.
4. God's favor with jail staffing & open doors for ministry.
