Who we are
We are a group of volunteers based in Australia, reaching out to prisoners in Thailand giving them hope. There are 260,000 men and women surviving, under extremely difficult conditions, in Thai prisons (2023) As a registered charity in Queensland, Australia, our aim is to support prisoners in Isaan in various ways while they are still in prison and upon release.
Our Mission
- Our underlying Christian values dictate that all life is valuable, that forgiveness sets people free and that our only hope to live abundant free lives is through Jesus Christ.
- We aim to reach out to those deserted and often serving life sentences in prison.
- We believe that we are all called to a ministry of reconciliation, reconciling people to God and people to each other. This belief finds expression in what we do and the way we do it.
- Our practical outreach involves writing letters of hope, fundraising for the prisoners and visiting them every year.
- The care for released prisoners form an integral part of this ministry.
- We welcome anybody who would like to reach out with compassion to those in prison.
