We believe jails and prisons aren’t just places to serve time - they can be places of transformation and growth. We’re here to clearly share the Gospel with men and women who are incarcerated and help them on their discipleship journey. Long Hollow Incarceration Ministry believes every facility can become a sending force - where people meet Jesus, are transformed, grow as disciples, and impact their circle of influence for the kingdom.

Men and women age 18 and over may be trained to become team members who visit incarcerated men and women on an ongoing basis. Opportunities include co-leading discipleship groups, attending services, and helping lead Bible studies, Celebrate Recovery, or business classes.
