We need your help. There are many opportunities for you to serve in this ministry. All we ask is that you have a willing heart and a spirit of obedience and you can play a crucial role in God’s ministry of Changing Hearts, Transforming Lives and Impacting the World. Here’s some basic information to help you “get involved.”
Be a Team Member
Kairos volunteers come from all walks and strata of life. They all share a desire to follow Christ’s admonition of Matthew 25:36, “I was in prison and you visited me.” If you feel God’s call to minister, specifically here in southeast Louisiana inside Angola State Penitentiary, please contact us.
Be a Prayer Partner
All Kairos activities are covered with prayer. You can be a part of that prayer effort. You can find many of our prayer vigils on a www.3dayol.org
Be a Support Volunteer
Each Kairos retreat weekend has opportunities for outside support, such as baking cookies, writing letters of support, or preparing meals. Get your church’s Sunday school classes to color placemats for mealtime in prison.
Be a Ministry Financial Donor
All Kairos activities are funded by donations. If you would like to support this ministry by your donation, make your check payable (any amount is appreciated!) to Kairos Prison Ministry International:
Kairos Prison Ministry of Louisiana
14934 Ridgeside Ave.
Baton Rouge, LA 70818
All donations are tax-deductible.
Be a Cookie Baker
We may need up to 5,000 dozen cookies for a typical Kairos weekend. Do the math… that’s 60,000 cookies! Homemade cookies are a tangible expression of Christian love and an indication of God’s concern for a group of people who seldom encounter either in the course of their daily lives. Your loving sacrifice will provide “bread” that shines the Light of God’s Grace into the darkest corners of a prison unit. May God bless you for the gift of baking!
Angola allows any cookie variety, but you can guarantee they’ll love chocolate chip!
