Prison ministry outreach programs

Prison Ministry

The Prison Ministry at Green Lakes Baptist Church is led by Andrew and Pam Wood, both retired from the Virginia Department of Corrections, bringing decades of experience, insight, and understanding into the correctional environment. Their background allows them to minister with credibility, wisdom, and respect, meeting individuals where they are with clarity and compassion. Together, they lead this ministry with a deep belief in redemption and transformation through Jesus Christ.

As part of their work, Andrew and Pam teach the Inside-Out Dads program, a nationally recognized initiative designed to help incarcerated fathers develop character, accountability, and healthier relationships with their children. In addition, they conduct a worship service inside the facility on the first Sunday of each month, offering biblical teaching, encouragement, and spiritual support. Through consistent presence, thoughtful instruction, and faithful care, the Prison Ministry reflects Green Lakes Baptist Church’s commitment to restoration, dignity, and hope for every life.
