Praise and thank the Lord! On 1 Jan 2020, Breakthrough
Missions and the other halfway houses signed another 2-year MOU on the
"Halfway House Service Model" with the Singapore Prison Service. This
ceremony was witnessed by the Commissioner of Prisons, Mr Desmond Chin. It marked
10 years of collaboration between Breakthrough Missions and Singapore Prison
Service based on this model.
According to this model, Breakthrough will receive 23
prison inmates who are serving their sentences. They will receive 6-12 months
recovery, and counselling courses, to complete their prison parole sentence and
reintegrate to society.
We praise and thank God, that in these 10 years, we
have served 471 inmates. In this short period of their life journeys, they
receive the love and company of leaders, social workers and staff. After the
program is completed, some will choose to reintegrate to society. Others may
choose to remain and complete the 18 months of basic foundation program, or
even another 18 months Helper program preparing themselves to serve fellow
residents in the future.
