Prison Ministry

Since 2023, with support from Prison Chaplaincy UK and WayOut TV, Spring Harvest has livestreamed its event into prisons across the country, reaching more than 63,000 prisoners with the gospel, worship, and Bible teaching.
“Bringing the hope of Jesus into prisons matters more than ever. These are places where isolation, regret, and trauma often go unseen—but God sees every life, and His message of grace and transformation has the power to reach even the darkest corners. Spring Harvest in prisons is a lifeline of truth, encouragement, and a reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God’s love.”

Thousands of prisoners engaged
with Spring Harvest since 2023

A prisoner from HMPLittlehay wrote to us:
“I just want to thank you so much for live-streaming on WayOut TV. I am a Christian man, who has made big mistakes in my life. I have done wrong, Before I came into Prison I was a church goer but I didn’t lean on Him. I want to get the message out there about God while I am in Prison. But what you do is so big. I thank you and I thank God.”
We’re thrilled to be working closely with the Venerable James Ridge, Chaplain General, and prison chaplains nationwide;
“Chaplaincy thrives on partnership – on working together towards a common goal. HMPPS Chaplaincy are delighted to be in partnership once again this year with Spring Harvest. Thanks to their vision and generosity thousands of prisoners will have the opportunity to hear the Gospel presented in an engaging and exciting way and know for themselves that there is ‘No Greater Story’” - The Venerable James Ridge

"The last shall be first and the first shall be last."

Matthew 20:16
We are to be people who see possibility where others see failure, beauty where others see ugliness and freedom where others see chains. this is the Upside Down Kingdom, where the forgotten are noticed, the silenced are given back their voice and love is stronger than hate.
