Hundreds of San Quentin prison inmates were “worshipping, praying, crying and rejoicing” earlier this week after dozens of incarcerated men gave their lives to Jesus, a national prison ministry reports.
God Behind Bars, which works to restore the lives of inmates by building their faith during incarceration and after their release, held an outreach event at the San Quentin Rehabilitation Center in San Quentin, CA.

“Eighty incarcerated men baptized at San Quentin prison,” the ministry shared online. “After sharing the gospel and hundreds getting saved, all these incarcerated men came up and got baptized! This was late in the evening, the prison lights were on.”
“All you could hear was the sounds of hundreds worshipping, praying, crying, and rejoicing,” the group added. “Everyone was happily soaked in mud as man after man came up to get baptized! Revival is happening.”
Through strategic outreach programs, God Behind Bars works to reach the more than 2.3 million people in the prison system.
“We create satellite campuses in prisons and our whole mission is to introduce inmates to Jesus,” Isaac Holt, Director of Innovation for God Behind Bars, told CBN News.
