... these terms define Crossroads Prison Ministry's concept.  Two experiences made in the association's first years have forged our activity: whoever offers Christ's love and God's forgiveness to convicts in prison needs action that speaks as loud as his words.  He cannot afford to depend on good advice for life after prison sentence.  And anyone who wants to help ex-convicts effectively needs a comprehensive concept not limited to a few restricted aspects of life.  People who want to break out of their old milieu need personal relationships and a new environment, new friends and even a real home for the first time in their lives.
