Jeff's Second Family PenPal Ministry offers a Volunteer correspondence program for Incarcerated Individuals. Recently, a few Inmates who only write and speak Spanish, have come onto the program, and are requesting a Spanish-speaking PenPal Volunteer with whom to correspond. If you are bi-lingual Spanish/English and are at least 18 years of age, this Volunteer opportunity might be right for you. Many of the Inmates do not have family or friends with whom to correspond, and you can make a real difference in their lives by corresponding with them in their native tongue.
If you are interested in joining this PenPal program, please email me back at your convenience, and I will send you the Information Sheet for Prospective PenPal Volunteers.
Thanks and Blessings,
Richard Holley
