Chapter 1 Overview
Purpose The Board of Directors of Prisoners For Christ Outreach Ministries is committed to organizational alignment and reaching its ministry goals in the quickest manner possible. Consequently, this Strategic Plan was created to ensure organizational viability, that our actions are planned, and our activities leverage our strengths while minimizing our weaknesses. Our departments are positioned to serve our constituency. Introduction Prisoners For Christ Outreach Ministries (PFC) is a nondenominational Christian prison ministry based in Woodinville, WA, near Seattle. An expanded history and ministry accomplishments can be reviewed at www.prisonersforchrist.org. PFC is recognized by the IRS as a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation and is a long-term- member in good standing with the ECFA (Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability). Founded in 1989, Prisoners For Christ Outreach Ministries is dedicated to taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ into the jails, prisons, and juvenile centers in the Northwest and around the world. We accomplish this task through worship services, Bible studies, special concerts and performances, and one-to-one visitations. We have expanded throughout the United States with our popular Bible study correspondence course and Yard Out newspaper. We are also expanding internationally with field offices in over twenty-three foreign countries. PFC currently has over 1,400 volunteers, approximately half in the United States and half in different countries. Those volunteers in the United States come from approximately two hundred local churches. The ministry has an eight-member Board of Directors that governs the affairs of the ministry. In 2023, PFC had attendance of 1,260,123 inmates who attended our programs, both nationally and internationally, in which 49,102 inmates made first time commitments to our Lord Jesus Christ. Our worldwide volunteers conducted a total of 9,005 PFC services, averaging 750 services per month, or almost 24 services per day. That’s one service every hour.
