What We Do

We approach our mission with three stages

Love

We bring the love of God and Good News of Jesus Christ to Jails and Prisons by comforting, providing, and encouraging inmates and their families.

Learn

We teach them God’s Words and vocational expertise. “Bible in one hand and training manual in the other.”

Live

We provide them a place to live and a place to work.

In our name, LOCK also stands for Love Of Christ’s Kingdom, Learn On Christ’s Kingdom and Live Out Christ’s Kingdom. Consequently, The LOCK Ministry has 3 stages of ministries. 

The Love Stage: Our goal is to help incarcerated people experience the love of our Lord, Jesus Christ, by continuing visitation and friendship through our prayers, encouragement, counseling, comforting, and provision. Our ultimate goal is to break the pattern of recidivism by helping them become citizens of Christ’s Kingdom. As an inmate experiences the transformative love of God, he will be empowered to walk with us through the Learn and Live stages.

The Learn Stage:  Our goal is to help returning prisoners become experts in God’s Word and also in secular jobs. We will provide them with discipleship training and vocational training -  a Bible in one hand and a job training manual in the other. By this, they will be better equipped to assimilate into society smoothly, and to go on and live fruitful lives.  

The Live Stage:  Our goal is to help returning prisoners find a place to live and to work. We will operate dormitories to house returning prisoners until they find their own homes. We will also start and run businesses to train and employ returning prisoners. As they excel in a decent job, nourished by the Word of God, we hope to witness the birth of a true Kingdom citizen.  

It is our desire to walk alongside until they become flourishing citizens of the United States and also of the Kingdom of God.
