How to Support Kolbe Prison Ministries SA

There are several ways to help and support this life-changing ministry, including:

  • Pray
  • Donate
  • Volunteer
  • Recommend (tell others about us)

Get Involved! Do you have a heart for helping those who have had difficult lives and made poor choices, but are now trying to amend their ways? Are you wondering how you or your church might make a contribution that will make a difference? Here are some ideas:

Pray for Kolbe Prison Ministries!

Please pray for the Lord’s protection, provision and wisdom for our Core, teams, volunteers and benefactors. As expected, the Evil One does not want this ministry to exist or succeed, so we need your ongoing prayers.

Donate Financial Resources

Every KPM-San Antonio retreat has expenses to cover for materials used/consumed at the retreat including food items, serving supplies, print materials, table supplies and materials, and more. Unless we get these items donated directly (which usually does not happen), the retreat leaders and team have to foot the bill for these costs. With the increasing number of facilities and scheduled retreats, covering these costs has become more and more burdensome on the volunteers. We need additional help from the broader caring community… people like you! For offering up of your monetary donation, please click on the Paypal button below.





Donate Food and/or other Material Resources

As mentioned above, every retreat uses/consumes food items, serving supplies, print materials, tables materials, and more. But most especially meals. At a typical retreat, a total of five meals are provided to the outside team members (Kolbe volunteers), inside team members, and retreatants (offenders) which usually includes well over 100 total individuals. Restaurants, public institutions, charities with kitchen facilities and other groups of individuals (typically church groups) are encouraged to contribute an occasional meal. Your generous donation will go a long ways toward helping to give our incarcerated brothers a life-changing (and hopefully soul-saving) retreat experience. Please use the email form on the ‘Contact Us’ page if want to inquire about donating food or supplies.

Attend our Fundraisers

Join us at our benefit gatherings (yet in the planning stages) where we inform attendees of the latest KPM news, show off some of art and other media from retreatants, and ask for your support. In the past, the team members and Kolbe Core members footed most of the bill for the cost of the retreats but we need further assistance. We really need your help! Kolbe Prison Ministries SA are also supported through the Spiritual Retreat Foundation which hosts special events in support of KPM-San Antonio and other similar ministries. You can learn more about the Spiritual Retreat Foundation and its special events by visiting the Spiritual Retreat Foundation website.

Join us as a team member or ministry volunteer

Please prayerfully consider becoming actively involved in KPM-San Antonio by participating as a team member (previous attendance at an ACTS or other similar retreat strongly recommended). There is also a need for volunteers to attend and help with prison retreat reunions, Bible studies, Communion service, and RCIA classes. A number of men who initially dragged their feet and reluctantly volunteered as a retreat team member found the ministry to be very uplifting and rewarding… and they became repeat volunteers. How about you?

Recommend us: be a witness and voice for KPM in your community

Everyone can be a prison ministry ambassador, a behind-the-scenes supporter, and an ‘unofficial’ KPM team member. All it takes is the willingness to promote the cause for bringing Christ to the prisons by passing along a gentle comment, a well placed nudge or a sincere recommendation to a faith-filled man to consider helping KPM. You may never know what such a simple, kind gesture will do to point a loving gentleman toward becoming the hands, feet and voice for Christ in the prison and perhaps even save a previously lost soul. May God richly bless you for sharing your time and talent with these least brothers of ours.
