SoapBox Prison Ministry

Soapbox has recently revived its work in prisons, something that we were involved in as long ago as the 80’s. Headed up by Rob Russell we seek to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to those incarcerated in these institutions.

Moreover, Rob is developing a long-term discipleship model that attempts to bring new Christians to spiritual maturity thus preparing them for a lifetime of relationship with God. This has real benefits when they are finally released and take their place in society and the wider Church.

“We don’t promote any particular denominational stance; we simply introduce them to Jesus.”
The discipleship manual, 'Walking the Walk' is available in our downloads page.
Rob and his team have visited the Philippines twice in recent months, where he has worked with SoapBox project partner, Chrissy Perillo in some of the hardest jails in the country. During those visits the team saw hundreds come to Christ for the first time.

He is looking for people who would be prepared to translate the Walking the Walk manuals into other languages. He already has manuals in German, Romanian and Spanish and would like other languages including Tagalog (Philippines). If you can help in this, please contact Rob at the address below.
In addition, Rob is gathering a small team who are implementing this vital work but the work needs resourcing. Unlike our Short-Term Projects and ChildCare program, the prison ministry has no way to generate resources. Rob receives no financial support directly from SoapBox but you can give to the prison ministry through SoapBox.
