Faith-Based Reentry, Leadership & Mentorship

Discipleship that starts inside the walls and walks with you all the way home.

Ministry Partner
Genesis One Network
A faith-based prison discipleship program built on leadership, accountability, and mentorship — and it starts inside the walls. Members grow into leaders among their peers behind the walls so that, on release, they're equipped to lead their own households. Not just a pre-release program: a full path of discipleship, an accredited-member leadership track earned inside, and a graduate network on the outside (register at release, monthly OKC/Tulsa fellowship gatherings, and an ongoing resource network). Its mission: "Glorifying Jesus Christ by making inmates Christian Disciples."
Operates: Inside Oklahoma correctional facilities, plus the post-release graduate network · a 501(c)(3) faith-based program (Trails End Foundation, dba Genesis One Network, Edmond, OK)
Phone: (405) 973-6997
Our connection: our ministry serves alongside Genesis One inside Oklahoma facilities.

The Bridge — Prison Ministry
The prison-ministry department of The Bridge (Assemblies of God, Mustang, OK). Our team goes inside the Union City facility to lead services and disciple men, and is building reentry mentorship to walk with them as they come home. Newer and growing, and adding hands.
Serves: Men incarcerated at Union City

Ministry Prayer Life — Prayer & Reentry Mentorship
This ministry.
