2010 Human Relations Day Video
They say that our children are our future, but for families where a parent has been incarcerated that child’s future means having to overcome massive social and emotional struggles. At the four Redemption UMC churches in Oklahoma City, the congregations live up to its own name by providing welcoming environments for inmates, and families to stay together and seek rehabilitation. The Redemption Kids Program provides attention, care, and training for the children of inmates. Hear what some of the staff and children at Redemption Kids have to say and how you can support programs like the Redemption Church kids ministry through the Human Relations Day Offering. Your gifts provide support for the Youth Offender Rehabilitation Program, Community Developers, and United Methodist Voluntary Service advocacy programs.
