- Pen Pal-writing to inmates
- Support Circle-provide a safe space and network of people where individuals and families could relate with one another.
- Angel Tree – provide gifts for children whose parents are incarcerated during the
Advent Season.

- Saturday, October 22, Workshop TBD
- Friday, December 16, Joint Angel Tree and Saturday's Children Fellowship Christmas Celebration
- The Angel Tree Fellowship is our ministries initiative that reaches out to the Angel Tree families we minister to during Christmas Season. Convent Avenue Baptist Church Prison Ministry is dedicated to promote Christmas spirit throughout the year to the families of the incarcerated. We purpose to accomplish this task by inviting the Angel Tree families to share in our church-wide annual worship experiences and the Saturday's Children Fellowship seek to better graft families into the life of the church.
