The Kairos Retreat Experience

The Kairos retreat is a powerful weekend experience designed to introduce inmates to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Through a series of talks, small group discussions, and worship, inmates are invited to examine their lives, confront their sins, and embrace God's grace. The retreat culminates in a powerful decision point where inmates have the chance to surrender their lives to Christ.

The Impact of Kairos

The impact of Kairos on the lives of inmates is profound. Many inmates report experiencing a deep sense of peace, hope, and purpose after participating in the retreat. They often describe a newfound desire to change their lives and live according to God's principles.

  • Spiritual Growth: Kairos provides inmates with the tools and support they need to grow spiritually. Through daily Bible study, prayer, and fellowship, inmates can deepen their relationship with God.
  • Emotional Healing: The retreat offers a safe and supportive environment for inmates to address their emotional wounds and trauma.
  • Life Transformation: Kairos empowers inmates to make positive changes in their lives, break free from destructive patterns, and build a future based on faith and hope.

  • Other Texas Prisons: Kairos also serves inmates at other correctional facilities throughout Texas, including state prisons, county jails, and juvenile detention centers.

Statement of Faith

The people of Kairos are called by God to share the love of Christ with those impacted by incarceration. Kairos encourages believers from a variety of Christian traditions to be volunteers in this Christ-filled ministry.

Kairos programs offer to prison residents, their families, and those who work with them the opportunity to receive God’s forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ, and to grow in their faith and servant hood in Christian community. We stand on the common ground of the following elements of faith:

We in Kairos believe:

  •  The Bible is God’s authoritative and inspired word for our faith and our lives.
  •  In the Trinity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  •  In the deity, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
  •  Friendship with God is a free gift, for God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
  •  The love of Jesus Christ motivates His followers to provide food for the hungry, drink to the thirsty, welcome to the stranger, clothes for the naked and visits to the sick and those in prison.
  •  In sharing the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ with all incarcerated individuals, their families and to those who work with them inside and outside the correctional institution.
