How Can You Get Involved?

There are 2.4 million adult prisoners behind bars. 650,000 prisoners will be released in the next year, 1,700 a day are being released every day

Our adult population is exploding and everyday more and more will be be moved into a Nursing Home or Assisted Living Facility

Who will bring them the good news of the Gospel?

There are many ways you can become involved. We would be pleased to help you or your church find out more about starting a His Love Ministries Outreach in your area. Involvement takes many forms. One of the easiest ways is to become a His Love Ministries Volunteer. You may have time available to teach a Bible Study, or to help the Chaplain with office work, or assist in the worship services. But most of all, the Chaplains need a strong group of people who will commit to pray for them each and every day.

Of course, every ministry has financial needs. These are not so different from your own church. We accept no local, state, or federal funds and are supported by churches, individuals, businesses, and foundations that are interested in jail and prison ministry. Because of this, we can preach the Gospel message undiluted and without restriction. His Love Ministries does not seek to take away contributions from the local church; however, we do seek support from churches by asking them to consider His Love Ministries as part of the church’s mission or benevolent budget. Please prayerfully consider what you might do to help support His Love Ministries. Your support will make a difference that you may never know, in a life that you may never meet.
