About Story of Grace Jail Ministry
Story of Grace Jail Ministry was founded in 2015. Donna began ministering in the Decatur County jail when she took over the jail ministry at her church in Decaturville, TN. Donna and her team continues to minister in the Decatur County Jail, as well as the Carroll County, and Henry County Jails. Donna and her team have helped countless women find salvation through Jesus Christ. They have witnessed instant healing, and seen countless women receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit as well. God is truly moving!
Not only do they go into the jails to minister, but Donna and her team works with rehab centers such as Teen Challenge, The Hope Center, and facilities such as the Dream Center in Jackson, TN to help the ladies step into the new lives they have begun while incarcerated.
We believe the success of this ministry has been driven by the power of the Holy Spirit most of all, and also through building relationships, and getting ladies into appropriate aftercare programs. We have seen God do the miraculous behind prisons doors, and we know He's not done.
We also go into women's prisons and hold women's conferences. Our largest team goes in when we minister in the prison due to the extremely high number of residents. If you would be interested in volunteering to go into the prison with us, please contact me for an application. We want to welcome, and encourage people to come alongside us, to be trained, and then start their own chapter in their local jails as well.

I am so grateful for all the ladies who support and serve alongside me in the jail/prison ministry.
I couldn't do it without each of them! We also appreciate all our sponsors, and partners who contribute to this ministry financially, or through prayer. You help us to do what we do!

*Please pray for the inmates during this difficult season. Due to Covid-19, all the prisons are currently closed to ministry, and volunteer services. We are looking forward to going back in as soon as restrictions are lifted.*
