Mission statement

PJPS is a ministry that shares the transforming love and mercy of God through holistic rehabilitation of incarcerated persons, their families, and the prison community as a whole.


Empowering Inmates

As a non-government organization, the main purpose of PJPS is to provide service to the corrections community, particularly the Bureau of Corrections in Muntinlupa City.  The Jesuit priests work hand in hand with volunteers, benefactors, and Bureau employees towards alleviating the condition of inmates, advocating reforms, and empowering the inmates in preparation for future reintegration into society. 

With the help of generous benefactors and partner institutions, PJPS is currently able to provide health care and help with the paralegal needs of the inmates, implement various spiritual and pastoral formation programs to the prison community, provide scholarships to the children of inmates, and conduct other services that attempt to help in the total rehabilitation of inmates and their families.  

Vision

PJPS envisions a society that rebuilds lives, rekindles hope, and restores dignity in all those affected by incarceration.
