Ministering to incarcerated and post-incarcerated individuals is a unique ministry requiring specialized training and skills.

The Diploma in Chaplaincy from UCMI fulfills the requirement for training for prison ministry.  Information can be found at:

GLM will accept completion of a comparable program.

If you are interested in this area of ministry, please contact Rev. Larry LoMastro, coordinator of GLM' prison ministry for an interview.
