Crossroads Prison Ministries’ international outreach is a growing global movement that brings the hope of the Gospel to incarcerated men and women across more than twenty countries. Through partnerships with national ministry leaders, Crossroads equips local teams with Bible study lessons, training, and ongoing support so they can disciple students in culturally relevant and meaningful ways. Lessons are now offered in multiple languages, and many countries print materials locally to reduce costs and expand access. From Africa to Asia, Europe to South America, these partnerships empower mentors and chaplains to walk alongside students, offering encouragement, Scripture-based guidance, and the message of Christ’s transforming love. As a result, thousands of people behind bars worldwide are encountering hope, restoration, and spiritual growth through Crossroads’ international ministry efforts.
