Mission Gate Prison Ministry

Our staff and volunteers take the Gospel into Missouri prisons and jails.

They share the Gospel, teach strategies for right living, and help inmates break the chains of crime.

What a privilege it is to see ex-prisoners' eyes light up when they see a ray of hope. Change becomes believable. Life becomes manageable. Living life fully becomes a reality.

Our program gives many desperate men and women their last chance to change. 

After 9 months of intensive work, these same individuals stand tall and strong at graduation. They're ready to rejoin their families and contribute to their places of work, churches, and communities.

Women's programs

Local churches and communities are an important part of our recovery program. 

Churches welcome our men and women as contributing members of the congregation, helping them put their spiritual gifts to work. 

Many local employers prefer to hire from Mission Gate because of our residents' positive attitudes, excellent work attendance, and job performance with no worry about drugs or alcohol.
