Meet Chaplain Singleton
Alan D. Singleton, Sr, is the lead Chaplain at the Mobile County Metro Jail. He is an Associate Minister under Pastor Dr. Henry W. Roberts at Word Of Life Community Church in Chickasaw, Alabama. Alan also has a street ministry in the Plateau, Africatown Community, where he serves spiritual food and natural food on Sundays after church services. Additionally, he helped start the Africatown Community Development Corporation (ACDC), which restores homes in Plateau and brings grants to the area as the ACDC informs people about the Clotilda, the last slave ship to come to the U.S.
The DOJ Grant will increase our ability to serve the inmates here in the jail with adult basic education and job readiness. These classes will teach them how to do resumes and, most importantly, give them life skills to help them re-enter our community in positive ways. Chaplain Singleton says, "I talk with the sons and daughters of the mothers and fathers in our community here in the jail five days a week. Some desire help; some desire just to be heard. It is imperative that we all continue to serve the Lord, including serving those who are the least among us here in Metro Jail. AMEN."
