Our Mission
For Post-Prisoners
CFTI (Certification for the Incarceration) breaks the barriers of employment for returning citizens- Using technology as their friend, returning citizens are taught the latest employment techniques which allow them to become a functional and productive member of society.
For Inmates
If your loved one is currently residing in a state prison and they have access to JPAY, please email Chaplain Kurt (kurtglo@gmail.com) to receive our weekly devotional, Between the Guard Towers. Each devotional is written to help inmates through a one-on-one relationship with Jesus Christ, while they are in prison. Study Bibles are available at no cost.
Don’t let your criminal record be a hindrance for getting a job!Know the do’s and don’t s from the job interview questions
At most any-given job interview, your past will be the center topic-be prepared, plan ahead and know how to answer all questions, correctly;” Dear Mr. Smith, because of your felony, I’m hesitant to offer you a position within our company. Can you convince me that you are a changed person? What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses? How much do you know about our company?
If your “job readiness” skills need to be finely tuned, call us today and we will help you.
If you have been recently paroled from prison and are living in West Michigan and need assistance with job readiness, please call us at 616-240-0841

Please listen, it’s not God’s will for anyone to go to prison. But it is God’s will to chastise those He loves. Therefore, don’t be angry with God and hold a resentment, wondering why He allowed you to be incarcerated. If you harbor bitterness and anger from within, you will never heal spiritually.
