Alpha for Prisons

Alpha’s holistic introduction to the Christian faith provides prisoners through observation & dialogue with volunteers and each other the opportunity to discover for themselves the meaning of life. Alpha in prisons is an effective ministry tool by which prisoners can overcome their deep sense of loss through the understanding of what it really means to have “Christ in their lives”. Hope through faith is then restored and they are more likely to live by Biblical standards while still in prison and after release.

Christians are sharing their life changing experiences with inmates in our nation’s prisons & jails. You may be considering how you might follow the leading of the Holy Spirit in your life by becoming involved with us. Through Alpha USA and the local church we believe that fewer people will return to prison once released. We work to make our communities safer places in which to live while bringing glory to God and we need your help.

There are many National Prison Alpha Advisors around the country who are ready and able to assist others in taking the Alpha Course inside prisons, as well as assisting in so many ways to support the effort.
