Kairos

Changing Hearts + Transforming Lives + Impacting the World

“I was in prison and you visited me” — Matthew 25:36

The word, Kairos, is a Greek word meaning in “God’s Special Time” or in the “Fullness of Time,” indicating an opportunity for participants and guests to reconsider their life choices. 

Kairos Prison Ministry International, Inc. (Kairos) is a lay-led, interdenominational Christian ministry in which men and women volunteers bring Christ’s love and forgiveness to prisoners and their families.

The Kairos programs take the participants on a journey that demonstrates the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ. Kairos Prison Ministry is Christian in nature, although no religious affiliation is necessary to be a participant.

The programs involve a structured model that includes the weekend experience, followed by guests or participants gathering regularly for accountability, support, and prayer.


How can I Serve in Kairos Prison Ministry?

Due to state regulations and WCCW prison operations, Kairos is no longer holding weekends at the women’s prison in Gig Harbor. If you are interested in being a part of this ministry, please contact Kairos of Washington at https://kairosofwashington.org/ or at the business address below. Watch for weekends at Clallam Bay, Special Commitment Center, Stafford Creek Corrections Center (men’s weekends and Prayer & Share) and Kairos Outside Eastern Washington (women’s weekends) as restrictions open up in the state.

Want to join us in this mission? Contact us here for more information or to get involved!  

If you are unable to visit the prison you can pray for the ministry team, and the guests or you can help with a monetary donation. Please indicate WCCW or WSR in your donation information.
