Rescue Souls Through Our Prison Ministry

In the heart of Russia’s Novosibirsk region, River of Faith Ministry is igniting hope in the darkest corners of 12 prison colonies, including the “Maloletka” juvenile facility, the Female Colony, and the Prison Hospital. Our brothers and sisters tirelessly bring Christ’s love to inmates trapped in a world of sin, bitterness, and despair, and we urgently need your support to deepen this life-changing mission.

Imagine the impact: Bible study groups thriving in every colony, where prisoners, once lost, encounter the saving grace of Jesus. God is moving powerfully, rescuing souls from an atmosphere where hate and animosity once reigned. Our ministry doesn’t stop with spiritual guidance—we extend compassion to the prisoners’ families, many living below the poverty line. Last year, we visited 139 families, delivering food, gifts, and the story of baby Jesus, while sharing heartfelt messages from their incarcerated loved ones. This year, we’re preparing seven crews to reach even more families across the region. The tears of joy and gratitude from prisoners, moved by our care, testify to the transformative power of this work.

For years, we’ve nurtured devotion programs, organized Christmas visits, and hosted summer camps for prisoners’ children, offering them love and hope in Christ. Even during the quarantine, when colony visits were banned, God’s work continued. For the first time, prisoners organized their own Christian celebrations, and in some colonies, they began gathering independently for Bible study. Using legal telephone services, we maintain regular contact with dozens of inmates, ensuring they feel God’s presence despite isolation.

Your generosity can amplify this mission. Your gift will fund more Bibles, expand family outreach, support vocational training for prisoners, and sustain summer camps and Christmas programs for their children. Join us today to break the cycle of despair and bring eternal hope to inmates and their families. Visit our website now to make a lasting impact.
