Dale Glading founded Saints Prison Ministry in 1987. The Saints athletic teams utilize two of Dale’s passions – faith and sports – to minister to prisoners across the country. The United States national recidivism rate is distressingly high: 67.5% of prisoners commit new crimes within three years after release from a correctional facility. Academic studies have shown that ministering to prisoners both during and after their release can reduce recidivism rates by up to 35-40%. For participants in Saints athletic programs, the recidivism rate stands at only 5%.

 “There isn’t a government ‘answer’ to all of our society’s problems,” said Glading. “Faith, dedication, and hard-work can transform lives, create better citizens, and even produce a significant savings for the overburdened American taxpayer.”

Dale would like to invite all interested media professionals to join him for either of these special upcoming premiere events. Complimentary passes are available on a limited basis. Dale and his campaign team will also be available for interviews and comment related to the premiere.
