Manage episode 394029775 series 3382073
Kia Orana,
I personally met Simeon and his family here in Rarotonga, over 10 years ago. During our conversation then, we learnt that a mutual connection we had was of being birth delivered by the same island Doctor Snowball in Aitutaki, many moons ago. An instant friendship began of which we affectionately greet each other, 'Kia Orana my Aitutaki brother/sister to another mother'.
Simeon was recently back home visiting again with his family, I was able to sit with him and record this episode about his Book named, "One Mile To Make A Difference".
Simeon Sturney is an experienced through-the-gate prison chaplain who has helped hundreds of women at the point of their release from prison and as they walk to the local train station, journeying with them as they wrestle with their fears and temptations.
He is also a former managing chaplain at one of the largest Women’s prisons in Western Europe and a former Probation Service Officer.
Simeon has worked in prisons for over 15 years. He is married, has 2 children and 2 Grandchildren.
