The Alpha course brings a second chance in life to offenders and has been instrumental in helping them find a new lease on life.
The Alpha Course is run in prisons in over 74 countries on all continents around the world, in all types of prisons, half-way houses and remand centres for both men and women. It is also used in young offenders and juvenile institutions.
Alpha for Prisons is run over ten weeks, although it can be presented over a shorter period depending on the prison’s context. At each session there is time for discussion and fellowship. After the talk, participants go into pre-arranged groups, each led by a facilitator who has experience working with inmates.
“I rejoice at how God is using Alpha so powerfully…both inside and outside prison walls.”
- Chuck Colson, Prison Fellowship Ministries
“We have seen around the world that Alpha for Prisons works. Majority of those in prison have no previous experience of Christianity and little or no understanding of the Christian faith. It is often assumed that they know the foundations of the faith. Alpha provides an intentional way to help them understand their faith, so that the prison chapel services and other things that are done for them become more effective.”
- Rev Timothy Khoo, Prisons Fellowship International
