General Operation		 CJM Mission Statement
 Christian Jail Ministry’s mission is to serve God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit by evangelizing, making disciples, and helping men and women, especially inmates, former inmates, their families, correctional staff, and those providing services for them.  CJM will seek to fulfill this mission by providing chaplains for correctional institutions (especially the Howard County Detention Center (HCDC) in Maryland) and programs that address spiritual, personal, and social needs of current and former jail/prison inmates, their families, and correctional personnel as well as training and supervision for volunteers ministering within the criminal justice arena.  CJM will also emphasize creating awareness within the community and among the churches of the need for ministry within the criminal justice arena and the importance of compassionate justice for all.
