Manning resident Terry Land is passionate about doing God’s work, and starting in 2010, that work took the form of ministering to the inmates of Camille Griffin Graham Correctional Institution through an organization called Kairos Prison Ministries International, or Kairos for short. The Kairos Ministry itself has been serving for 31 years inside the walls of Camille Griffin Graham Correctional Institution, of which I have been a part of for 11 years.
Kairos is a Greek word meaning “in God’s special time” or “in the fullness of time”, and the organization uses the word not only as its name, but also to represent the impact that time and choices have on those to whom it ministers.
