On a recent Sunday morning, a few dozen men and just a few women gather at a little country church near Pahokee, Fla. They sing, pray and stand up to testify about the importance of God in their lives.
About the only sign that there’s something unusual about this church comes when it’s time for communion. Many of the men making their way to the altar are wearing ankle bracelets and electronic monitors on their belts.
This is the church at Miracle Park, a community mostly made up of sex offenders. Dick Witherow is their pastor.
