What is a Lighthouse?

A Lighthouse is a person, family or small group committed to pray for, care for and share Christ with family members, friends, classmates, coworkers and neighbors, especially those who do not know him. Praying, caring, sharing Christians impact the lives of those in their circle of influence. Prayer moves God’s hand in their lives (James 5:16). Caring demonstrates God’s love in practical ways (Romans 12:21). Sharing exposes them to the power of the gospel (Romans 1:16).

The Lighthouse Movement was launched in 1999 to help mobilize believers to pray for, care for and share Jesus Christ with every person in America. It emphasizes not only city by city transformation but also encourages every follower of Jesus Christ to become a light in their own community. To truly see the transformation of our nation, individual Christians must be praying for, caring for and sharing Jesus Christ with their neighbors, friends, family members and co-workers who don’t know Him.  As lighthouses, Christians throughout the nation are living out their personal faith and sharing Jesus Christ in word and deed with those around them.    

Aglow Prison Ministry ~ Touching the Captive

This ministry launches women into one of the most exciting, rewarding, and challenging adventures possible. When an Aglow woman involves herself as a team member in prison ministry, she is joining first with God, the Master Builder of people’s lives, in a project close to His heart -- the restoration of women.

In prison ministry, Aglow women become vehicles of life-changing power to those who are incarcerated. The purpose and call is to provide comfort, support, and offer acceptance and hope to those who are struggling with life's circumstances. Prison ministry teams do this primarily by taking the opportunity to share the life-changing message of Christ's saving love.

Since motive determines the value of the ministry, a potential prison ministry team member must be certain her highest desire is to serve. Just as Christ washed the feet of His disciples, so all who function in prison ministry must have dedicated servants’ hearts.
