Dear Kairos Family:
Great News: Angola is once again open for visitors and volunteers!
Monthly reunions are still on the first Saturday of each month and will resume
April 2. Visits to Death Row for Prayer and Share each Monday will resume next
week.
The prison currently requires volunteers to be vaccinated, boosted, and wear a
mask. Like all Covid rules, we don't know how those may change over time.
We are also discussing dates for the next weekend retreat to be led by Dr Jeb
Broyles as well as the next Death Row retreat. Please prayerfully consider
joining those teams.
For those who have all their paperwork in order to enter the prison: Thank you
and please prayerfully consider coming to an upcoming monthly reunion to help
re-establish our presence.
If you don't know if your paperwork is all in order, please contact me or Mike
Ryan and we will confirm the list
