Pagan Prison Ministry: Working With Incarcerated People, Returning Citizens, Allies, And The Criminal Justice System

In American prisons, the Abrahamic faiths (Christianity, Judaism, and Islam) are supported in their faiths by chaplaincy. However, those of the Pagan faiths (Wicca, Santeria, Asatru) are often not understood and are not given time, space, and worship materials. This autobiographical textbook gives history, suggestions, examples, and contacts for improving outreach to Pagan and Heathen incarcerated people and those restored to society. The author has worked in four Federal prisons and is currently a volunteer in two county correctional centers and is in correspondence with facilities in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Missouri, and Kansas both with incarcerated people and their chaplains. Charles Butler Neto is pursuing a Master of Divinity degree at Howard University School of Divinity. He was born of missionary parents in Brazil and is trained in Wicca and Santeria and is ordained through Rising Sun Outreach Ministry specifically for his work in prisons.
