Our Mission
Oldham Co. Residents Encounter Christ is a three day evangelistic retreat held for residents (inmates) of jails in and around Louisville, KY. Residents and community members experience God and spiritual formation through talks covering basics of a Christian life, table discussions, worship, and special times of reflection.
The purpose of the REC is to make Jesus Christ known to men and women who are incarcerated in prisons and jails within the Commonwealth of Kentucky
Our Values
Residents Encounter Christ (REC) seeks to empower prison residents to establish a Christian identity to encounter Jesus Christ. Residents are encouraged to share Christ with others, and in so doing, to change the environment of the prison in which they live, eat, sleep, and work. REC seeks to build strong Christian communities in prison. Residents are instructed to develop small groups which meet regularly and hold each other accountable to spiritual discipline. They are encouraged to pray for each other, and also for the staff and other residents in their facility.
