"But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.'" Luke 2:10-11 This Christmas, we celebrate the great joy that came to the world with the birth of Jesus Christ! His love and grace bring light into the darkest places, filling hearts with hope and lives with purpose. At Prison Fellowship International, we witness this joy transforming lives—from prisoners discovering freedom in Christ to children finding hope through His love. Let the joy of this season fill your hearts and homes. Merry Christmas from our global family to yours! ✨

This holiday season, we are filled with gratitude and joy as we reflect on our year. Andy, our President and CEO, recently visited Colombia, where he spent time with children with incarcerated parents who participate in our program, The Child's Journey. Witnessing their resilience, strength, hope and determination brought Isaiah 40:31 to mind: "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." We hope this heartfelt message brings you the joy of Christmas. May this Christmas season inspire you to embrace the hope and joy that these children embody each and every day.

Our Fiscal Year 2024 Annual Report is here! In a world searching for hope amidst skepticism and distrust, the Gospel’s message of restoration, mercy and grace is a powerful constant.

Libby (Taggart) Hart , our Senior Director of Donor Engagement, attended Jersey Road's "Future Proof Your Nonprofit" event where she served as a panelist for a discussion around communications insights, sharing tangible examples from our organization's recent findings. The event brought together nearly 50 non-profit leaders to explore how data-driven insights can shape business, communications and fundraising strategies. We thank Jersey Road for sparking meaningful discussions and fostering valuable connections within the non-profit community.

12.1 million individuals reside in prisons around the world, where lack of Gospel access is further compounded by low literacy and insufficient technology. Our program, The Listener’s Way, built in partnership with Faith Comes By Hearing, is designed to meet that need and provides in-prison audio and video Bible engagement in 29 countries in dozens of languages. Earlier this year, we coordinated for members of their video team to visit our team at Prison Fellowship Cambodia, where they heard about the program's impact, observed a session in a Cambodian prison and prayed with program participants. Their powerful experience was captured in their YouTube series, Edge of the World, offering a glimpse into the impact of this transformative program and ministry.
