Over 34 years ago, in 1986. . . The Word Among Us magazine invited its readers to donate to a prison “evangelism fund” to help those incarcerated receive the Word of God. Today, The Word Among Us Partners has grown across five ministries. As of 2023, we send The Word Among Us to: 90,000 prisoners, 35,000 service members, 20,000 college students, 20,000 people in pregnancy care centers, and 3,000 people experiencing hardship.
Changing Lives, Angela's Story
Thousands of people find forgiveness, find God, and often convert or deepen their faith in prison. In the darkest places, prisoners find the light of God! You help restore hope to 90,000 men and women in prison every month with the gift of The Word Among Us! Through your prayers and donations, you remind them that they are not alone–that God is with them behind bars.
With your prayers and support, this outreach will continue to grow!

To reach our incarcerated brothers and sisters, we created a Special Inmate Edition of the magazine. It includes Catholic prayers and tips for reading Scripture and receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation. The Word Among Us Special Inmate Edition is an excellent resource that we distribute across the United States and Canada.
Chaplains and volunteers can request free copies of the magazine or download a digital version for their ministries.
