2.3 Million People Behind Bars. Most Will Be Forgotten.

The prison system warehouses the broken, the addicted, and the lost — and releases most of them with little more than a bus ticket and a prayer. The recidivism rate hovers near 70% within three years.

But the Gospel changes everything. When men and women behind bars encounter the living Christ, something the system cannot manufacture happens: genuine transformation.

Christ Kingdom Ministry exists to be that catalyst — showing up where others won't, carrying Bibles into cells, and following up with the support that makes reentry possible.

68%

of released prisoners are re-arrested within 3 years. The system is failing. Faith-based programs cut that number dramatically.

"
I was serving a life sentence — not just in a cell, but in my soul. The day someone walked through those doors with a Bible and the love of Christ, everything changed. I am living proof that no one is beyond His reach.

Pastor Lucho preaching in prison

Founded on a Calling. Sustained by Faith.

Christ Kingdom Ministry was founded with one conviction: the Gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to save and transform any and every heart — including those behind bars.

What began as local prison visits grew into an international ministry reaching correctional facilities across North America, Central America, South America, and Europe. Every trip, every Bible, every prayer meeting is driven by the belief that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) organization — your gifts are tax-deductible. And because we use Zeffy for all donations, 100% of your contribution goes directly to the mission — not to platform fees.
