Forsyth Jail & Prison Ministries’ mission is to share Christ’s love and forgiveness to transform lives and break the cycle of crime and punishment. Chaplains, staff, and volunteers offered Bible studies, worship services, life skills classes, and family builder programs to help rehabilitate countless offenders and inmates in 2025. Through face-to-face encounters, counseling, teaching/preaching, and encouragement, many men and women experienced the love of Christ, who transforms lives.
The Forsyth Correctional Center (prison) population remained at full capacity of 249 offenders. The Forsyth County Detention Center year-end population was approximately 950 inmates, 10% of whom are women.
