Prison Fellowship Norway (PFN) is an independent part of Prison Fellowship International (PFI), a cross denominational Christian organization for help to inmates and their families and victims of crime. PFI comprises 119 member organizations, amongst which 29 are located in Europe.
Prison Fellowship was founded in USA in 1974 by Charles W. Colson, a former government advisor, and was established in Norway in 1988. Working on evangelical basis, the purpose is to help in bringing inmates back to the society and a new life during the imprisonment and after release.
How can PFN serve you, a prisoner from a foreign country?
There might be language barriers. Often PFN has a team of visitors with good language skills. You may ask for a visitor with such skills. You may also participate in PFN activities. Some are translated regularly—at least into English.
You may have some needs for help for your kin's if/when they are coming for a visit to Norway: transportation, lodging, or other concerns.
And when you are travelling back home: some practical help from our local international network in your home country? We have a long record of being able to assist upon return to other countries.
