Vision    

Mission   Goal

We provide spiritual guidance and discipleship training in state and federal prisons across the US and abroad.  Our goal is to establish the EE ministry in every prison in the US and ultimately in every nation.  To that end, we are currently training and recruiting a leadership team comprised of church leaders and volunteers from around the world.  These leaders are from various vocations and church backgrounds and provide prison ministry seminars and training to churches local in their area. We currently have leaders in 41 States in America and are adding to our team daily.

BIBLICAL BASIS

Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people especially to those who belong to the family of believers (Galatians 6:10).

Remember those in prisons as if you were their fellow prisoners and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering (Hebrews 13:3).

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you (Matthew 28:19-20).

 Prison EE combines two curriculums that offers three 7-week and one 13 week college accredited study courses encompassing research and discovery of facts contained in the Bible.  These courses equip the student with skills for mentoring others in how to communicate the fundamental truths of the Bible and how they relate to everyday life experiences. The curriculum contains components that prepare the student for re-entry into society and provide a comprehensive application of life skills and relationship building.

     Evangelism Explosion was founded by Dr. D. James Kennedy in 1962.  It was originally created to equip laymen to be effective ministers in the outreach of the local church. This same curriculum continues to be utilized in local churches and ministries in every nation of the world.

     At the completion of the course, the students will be able to further their skills through continued application of the principles learned from the study in their everyday life during their incarceration.  Upon their release, they will be able to effectively participate and/or teach the EE curriculum in the outreach ministry of the local church and other religious institutions.
