Summary
An 80-year-old volunteer chaplain, Myra, has spent 18 years offering emotional and spiritual support to inmates in southeast Queensland prisons, helping break cycles of reoffending. Her calling began unexpectedly during a prison visit in Moldova, where she stepped in to speak to 200 men—and never looked back. Now seen as a grandmother figure by the inmates, she’s become a trusted listener and source of comfort. With prison populations doubling and getting younger, the need for her kind of compassionate guidance is more urgent than ever.
