Thanks for Your Support of Our Prison Ministry

Posted by Catholic Distance University on Wed, Jun 22, 2022 @ 03:22 PM

The number of prisons CDU serves through digital courses has doubled to 223, but not all prisons have access yet. Several hundred incarcerated students each year access the faith through paper correspondence courses offered by CDU... and they are grateful.

“I must express my gratitude to you for everything CDU has done and
continues to do for my own spiritual growth via the Advanced Catechist Correspondence Program in which I am enrolled. Your program is an integral part of my journey to grow the seed of faith planted in me and to truly submit
my will to the will of the Father through Christ and His Church. My faith is
deepened through the intellectual growth that the study of the truths of our
Catholic faith produces. I am an undeserving, yet loved recipient of His grace
through your efforts. I thank you for your willingness to serve the least among
us.” --D.D., Louisiana, 2022

Your support makes a positive difference in prisoners’ lives every single day. CDU is blessed to serve free, faithful courses to 1,100 incarcerated brothers and sisters daily because of the generosity of The Order of Malta Federal Association, The John C. Fricano Foundation, and donors like you. Thank you!
