Who We Are

Prison Fellowship was founded by Chuck Colson, who served as special counsel to President Nixon and went to prison in 1975 for Watergate-related crimes. When Colson got out of prison, God radically redirected him to go back to prison, this time to minister to the men and women behind bars. Established in 1976, Prison Fellowship has grown into the largest prison ministry in the world, partnering with thousands of churches and tens of thousands of volunteers.

Our Vision

The focus of our ministry includes fellowshipping with Jesus (including teaching others to live and look at life from a biblical perspective), visiting prisoners, and welcoming the children of prisoners.

Types Of Activity

In-Prison seminars and ongoing bible studies, a Pen Pal program linking prisoners with caring volunteers, Inside Journal, PF's newspaper for prisoners, gives hope and help through testimonies and teaching. Operation Starting Line, a collaborative evangelistic effort involving Prison Fellowship and several other ministries, seeks to take the Gospel to every prisoner in every U.S. prison.

About Our Prison Ministry

Prison Fellowship reaches out to prisoners, ex-prisoners, and their families both as an act of service to Jesus Christ and as a contribution to restoring peace to our cities and communities endangered by crime. For the best way to transform our communities is to transform the people within those communities - and truly restorative change comes only through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
