HATTIESBURG, Miss. — A small but dedicated group of church members from St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church spent Monday morning bringing Christmas cheer to inmates at the Forrest County Adult Detention Center.

The volunteers delivered Christmas cards so inmates could write messages to their families. The cards will be mailed directly from the jail in time for the holidays. The group also brought snacks, offered prayers and shared words of encouragement with those incarcerated.

Anyone interested in jail ministry opportunities is encouraged to contact Major David Ward through the Forrest County Sheriff’s Office.
