What is our #1 Need and #1 Opportunity?

Recruitment of volunteers– Allowing others to grow and develop within Kairos– Planning for the future– Reaching more impacted by incarceration

How were you recruited? What is stopping you from asking others?


Do you realize we could double our volunteers and still not fill the opportunities we have today?

“I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.” John 12:46
