Since 1981 United Prison Ministries International (UPMI) has provided over 70 million Bible lessons, life-changing books, and Bibles to men and women in prisons around the world.
All of the literature that we distribute to prisons is free. We are a faith ministry, not supported by any church, foundation, or any organization.
United Prison Ministries International is a non-profit, tax-deductible, 501-C3 Organization supported by people like you, who want to see changes in the lives Of men and women in prison, so they can become productive citizens.
Remember, for every $10 you send, a prisoner’s life can be changed from crime to Christ. The choice is yours. Thank you for joining us in being a part of our worldwide ministries in taking a Bible-centered gospel into all the world. Your prayers and financial support are greatly needed and appreciated.

A Brother in Christ By Chaplain Nevels at Men's Correctional Facility Grafton, OH
Just saying thank you does not seem to be adequate in expressing how much we appreciate your support in supplying inspirational materials including the Bible Answers, which our inmates have really enjoyed over the past year. With our thanks we would like to also request to receive any additional copies of this book you may be able to send for our ladies...

People don't have the tendency to be concerned about offenders once they are released. It is like "out of sight out of mind". UPMI has helped people once they are free and you stayed in touch with them showing concern for their progress.
Thankfully your love goes well beyond the prison walls. My respect for UPMI grows with every encounter I have with them. I look forward to fellowshipping with you all again. I have found a home at UPMI and I will always be grateful for all I've learned. No doctrine or religion was ever forced on us, because WE GO BY THE BOOK!
By David Gladen (Alabama)
Thank you so much for responding to my request so quickly. Yesterday I recieved "Bible Answers" along with other booklets to my delight. I dived into it stayed up reading till wee hours of the morning...
Thanks you,
By M Hall Dallas Texas

“…Until we have wrestled with God till the break of day like Jacob: That is, until we have struggled to the utmost limits of our strength, and have known the despair of defeat.. (Until we have really understood the actual plight of our contemporaries, when we have heard their cry of anguish, (until) we have shared their sufferings, both physical and spiritual, and their despair and desolation… Then we shall be able to proclaim the work of God - but not until then!"
By using the method of “each one, reach one, teach one,” Richard Bland, Coordinator of United Prison Ministries International, demonstrates how he began with 15 Bible studies over twelve years ago to millions of Bible studies ministered in the last few years.
The same techniques used in prison also work in churches. Many pastors and church members are now using this method to double their membership. You can effectively us this same simple method in winning
your relatives and friends to Christ.
If not now, when? If not here, where? If not you, then who? Remember that Jesus cannot come anywhere until the Gospel is taught everywhere.”
