Why give to Simple Acts Ministry?


You will be part of directly changing 150 lives this year.
In the next 12 months, we will ...
* Graduate 20 men from SAM's Place
* Make a weekly impact on at least 30 men and women through our classes
* Involve 50 core members in our monthly meetings and small groups
* Educate, encourage and mentor 50 men in Montford's faith based dorm    

You will help build a hospitality house and recovery-and-reentry program.
In 2010, we purchased three duplexes to become the location for SAM's Place. With the help of volunteers, we're currently repairing and renovating the complex. It will include six two-bedroom units, a laundry room and a group meeting area. A live-in caretaker will be on-site to oversee the program. Finances are needed not only to complete the project but also to provide for monthly costs, run weekly classes and groups, and maintain the complex.

You will help a growing community of ex-offenders stay out of trouble and out of prison.
Studies show there are two things that provide the greatest reduction in arrest and return rates among ex-offenders: Involvement in ... 1. An ongoing recovery program.  2. A healthy support community. We link ex-offenders to recovery groups, job resources and social services. In addition, we use both small and large groups, as well as one-on-one mentoring to develop a strong, accountable community in the free world.

You will provide curriculum and materials for the men of Montford's faith based dorm and beyond.
God has opened an incredible door for us to make Christian disciples in our local prisons. We teach classes and workshops for 50 men, three nights a week at the Montford Unit. We also sponsor faith based classes at the Smith Unit in Lamesa. Your funds will provide enough books, workbooks etc. for each man to grow in their knowledge, character and understanding of God for one year.

You will empower the work and ministry of our daily operations.
Every organization must have funds in order to run. Our needs are simple. We have one full time employee and are currently searching for a building to house our various ministries in. We keep our operational costs low and spend carefully. Your financial help keeps us staffed and resourced to do the work and accomplish our mission.
