Agape has been ministering in Kentucky jails and prisons since the early 1970's. Thousands have come to know the love of Christ through the years. Hundreds of different volunteers, from all walks of life, have had the opportunity to minister hope to thousand of prisoners through Agape Prison Ministry.
"It is all about the hundreds of Agape VOLUNTEERS sharing their time and Christian love that makes a difference in thousands of inmates lives each year."
-Chaplain Mike Humble
Agape holds many Chapel Services in different prisons through out the year. Volunteers can participate in many different ways in these services. It also allows female volunteers to participate when they are restricted in some prison outreaches because of safety.
Agape continues to hold at least 8 services per month in the state prisons and local detention center. Attendance at religious services has been increasing, and several have been saved recently.
In addition, every Christmas Agape puts together Christmas Bags for the inmates. The items must be purchased through the Prison Canteen.

Agape is the original founder of PRISON INVASIONS in Kentucky, with the first state wide invasion in 1986. "Prison Invasions" utilizes many volunteers, on different weekends, to share Christ throughout the entire prison on a one-on-one basis with a large service in the evenings.
On the third Saturday evening of each month at Kentucky State Penitentiary, Agape volunteers go into "the hole"; otherwise known as maximum lock up 3 Cell House. Volunteers are able to share one-on-one, bringing a ray of hope, with maximum security inmates who see very little sunlight for weeks at a time.

Our Volunteers hold services in the Logan County Detention Center in Russellville, KY. Services are divided into Male and Female. These services have led many to Christ and we have been able to baptize them in the Detention Center!
