Her Mission
In 1998, Chaplain Conner began a ministry conducting one-on-one interviews with inmates in the Santa Clara / San Mateo County Correctional Facilities. The inmates interviewed were sex offenders, drug/alcohol abusers, robbers and murderers, etc. Many came from backgrounds such as gang involvement, molestation, abandonment and violent environments. Through those interviews Chaplain Conner addressed the origin of their problems. Currently being housed in a correctional facility these inmates continue to experience similar issues.
Through the years Chaplain Conner has reached out to help those who were limited in helping themselves by giving, supporting and aiding in ways innumerable.
Making weekly visits to jails and prisons, Chaplain Conner touches those who often remain forgotten and abandoned ... our brothers, fathers, husbands, uncles, cousins, and friends.
