Kairos Prison Ministry International
Munsey supports the prison ministries by volunteers, in partnership with other local ministries and programs, enabling local prison inmates to be involved in Christian ministry events such as Kairos and Emmaus.
Kairos Prison Ministry, similar to an Emmaus Walk, brings volunteers into prisons to minister to inmates, while catalyst Ministries trains the inmates to minister to one another and to the prison administration.
Inmates often say that "the unconditional love from the Kairos volunteers is the first time they felt like someone cared about them".
The ministries help corrections officials whose goal is for inmates to reenter society as better citizens.
