Every member of the assisted community in prisons and detention centers from various ethnicities, religions and races must get receive spiritual guidance according to their religion. The same applies to the Class IIA Pemuda Tangerang Prison which is located at LPK No.1 Pemuda Tangerang street, especially for the rehabilitation assisted residents because of drug cases who are Christian and Catholic. In certain activities, Christians and Catholics are sometimes combined and sometimes separated, depending on the interests of the activities and settings of the prison officials. Christian Religious Spiritual Guidance Service which is implemented in August 2020 thanks to the collaboration between prison leaders and the central leadership of the Rise and Shine Ministry Foundation, which mandated the Banten Province branch of the Foundation board to carry out these activities.
