Kairos Outside is a special weekend retreat designed to support the female loved ones of men and women who are or have been incarcerated. Families of the incarcerated “do time” right along with their loved ones. In a safe environment with loving people, women interact with other women who are in similar situations and learn to form small support groups to give them strength for the challenges they face. The weekend is Christian in nature, interspersed with music, prayer, fun activities and general pampering.
Franklyn and I are privileged to be part of a team of twenty-one women and three men for a Kairos Outside weekend to be held September 20-22, 2024. (The men spend the weekend cooking and serving meals.) Thirteen women have registered for this weekend, which will cost them nothing. Housing and food for the weekend costs approximately $250 per person. Your financial support, in any amount, is greatly appreciated.
On a table in the gathering area are Kairos Outside brochures, logos to color, and a sign-up sheet on which to indicate the times you will be praying for the weekend. Additionally I will be collecting donations for meal tickets. Meal tickets, personalized with the donor’s name and city, are placed at each place setting at every meal to represent your care and prayers. Our sincere thanks to those who have already made donations. Gratefully, Alice and Franklyn Vosburg
