    Complete the Embracing Purpose program. To become a facilitator, you will need to take the class yourself using the Embracing Purpose Self-Discovery Workbook (church edition), not the prison edition, with an experienced facilitator. Doing so equips you in the material and helps us get to know each other.

    NOTE: If you have not completed the program, you will be contacted with upcoming opportunities to do so.

    Complete Facilitator Training with Linda Slaton, consisting of two virtual sessions:

    2. Always Be Ready (to defend your faith)

    REQUIRED: SELECT ONE*

    NOTE: If the next training class is several months away, you will not be expected to delay the launch of your class until after the training.

    Once the application process is complete, our prison ministry coordinator will follow up with you. Once approved, you will be resourced with materials you need to launch Embracing Purpose prison ministry in your area. Thank you for your willingness to serve incarcerated women in your area.
