3. Matthew 25 Ministries’ Miracle Village

For most people, the idea of having a sex offender living next door or on the next block is terrifying. However, there is a village in Florida that gives sex offenders a place to call home. These offenders are not rapists, pedophiles, or people convicted of violent crimes. They are people who had consensual sex with a minor or were found to be in possession of child pornography. Miracle Village is the brainchild of a group called Matthew 25 Ministries, which draws its inspiration from the Parable of the Judgement in which Jesus called on his apostles to care for the poor and the imprisoned. By giving these nonviolent offenders a place to live and work, Miracle Village helps them successfully reintegrate into society.
