Kevin Derryberry Ministries
Kevin Derryberry, a musical evangelist, makes regular visits to the site to share his testimony and his talents.  His ministry also provides mentors by mail for the residents who request them; a resident is matched with a mentor who sends encouraging letters.  Each letter contains a piece of stationery and a stamped envelope so the resident can respond. 
 
 
A "Celebrate Recovery" group meets on site every other weekend.  Members apply "8 Recovery Principles" to become free from addictive, compulsive and, dysfunctional behaviors. This Christ-centered recovery program addresses all types of habits and hurts.
The purpose of this ministry has been to answer the call of God to communicate His love to criminal offenders. The initial focus exclusively on incarcerated men in the state of Alabama has grown to include both men and women and has expanded into other states as well.

 A new ministry is organizing to provide snacks and/or a meal and a worship service each weekend.  The messages are a ministry of Church on the Eastern Shore in Fairhope, and they may be accessed through the church website at www.cotesonline.org.  This ministry is also possible through the generous support of Frazer Memorial Church in Montgomery and the time and monetary contributions of its members and the local Salvation Army Unit.
