Kairos Inside Prison Ministry

November 3, 2023

Last month, the Kairos Inside Prison Ministry held an event at the Nebraska State Penitentiary. Kairos Inside is a Christian ministry whose mission is to develop a Christian community inside prisons. Their goal is to address the spiritual needs of incarcerated men, women, youth, AND their families.

The Kairos Inside program is held for three and a half days and is led by Kairos volunteers. This event includes a series of talks, discussions and chapel meditations. For many participants, the event creates the desire to become a Christian and for others the desire to continue their spiritual growth.

Thank you to all...Read more
