This year, Prisoners’ Sunday will be on 8 October 2023. Pact (Prison Advice and Care Trust) has produced and sent to all parishes, packs with information about how we can emulate Christ’s forgiveness of the repentant thief and fulfil His exhortation to care for prisoners and their families: through Prayer, Action and Giving.

The Corporal Acts of Mercy: visiting those in prison.
‘…I was naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me … as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.’
(Matthew 25:36-40)
