We are thankful that after the epidemic ended in 2023, our staff and volunteers could return to prisons to run religious classes, visit inmates and continue to spread the gospel and carry out pastoral care in prisons.
Over the years, KSA has been walking with prison inmates, rehabilitated persons and their families, caring for their needs and helping them experience rebirth in Christ Jesus. Thank God for using us to transform and heal the lives of prisoners; support rehabilitated persons reintegrate back into the community and be living witnesses of a blessed life; play a part in helping to restore order in the community; reconciling and rebuilding families. We can see that the ministry of KSA has played a positive and effective role in the community.
Thank you for your support and generous donations to our ministry in the past. We have always adhered to our role as good stewards and are committed to using donations in various ministries to effectively provide holistic care for prisoners’ and rehabilitated persons’ and their families’ needs.
