Lutheran Mercy Care Ministries are both a chaplaincy and after care ministry designed to embrace and teach offenders and people dealing with drug and alcohol addictions about Christ’s love for them. The Ministry is relational and offers bible studies, prayers, lively discussions on faith issues and ways to change their ways.
Pastor John Widmer As a Pastor at Our Savior Lutheran Church, John is responsible for the Mercy Care Ministries called LMCM, a help ministry of the Lutheran Church in Pagosa Springs. He is responsible for Jail and Prison Ministry. He serves the Archuleta and La Plata County Detention Centers and at the Guadalupe County Correctional Facility in Santa Rosa NM. He also ministers at the New Mexico Prison as a member of the New Mexico Chapter of Kairos Prison Ministry International. John brings a unique perspective to the ministry as he has seen both sides of the fence and shares his testimony at workshops, conferences, and with inmates. “If it wasn’t for the never-ending generosity, patience and love from John and his ministry, we would have never found ourselves. He was the light that shone through our darkest hour.” 
Sometimes all we need is someone who listens and believes in you, John and the ministry have stood by my side through the hard times of transition and change in my life. Without the help and support I got from this ministry, and the man who runs it I wouldn't be where I'm at today. Sober, successful, and building a life I never thought possible.

The warmth of Christ’s love is lived out in community, an expression of and, indeed, Christ’s very own activity of witness and mercy through His Church, which is “faith working through love (Gal. 5:6)”

I will say of You, Lord, "The Lord is my refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him i lean and rely, and in Him I confidently trust!"
For then You will deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. Then You will cover me with Your pinions [feathers],
and under your wings shall I trust and find refuge. Your truth and Your faithfulness are a shield and a buckler. (Psalm 91:2-4) from the Amplified Bible
