Kairos Ministry Cookie Drive

Let’s Welcome Back the Kairos Ministry Cookie Drive! 

Please drop off cookies Sunday, May 11, before the 5:30pm Mass, and help us share God's love.

The St. Matthews Social Justice Committee invites you to join us in baking home baked cookies for the Kairos K-90 Weekend, happening May 14-18, 2025, at Greenville Correctional Center in Jarratt, VA. 

Kairos Prison Ministry Weekend May 2025

 Each Kairos weekend requires 2,400 dozen cookies to serve over 2,000 residents, offering a tangible expression of Christian love. Every cookie represents three profound truths: 

  1. God’s Unending Grace – A symbol of His Agape Love.  
  1.  The Power of the Christian Community – Home-baked cookies show that people on the outside see and pray for the incarcerated. 
  1.  The Availability of Forgiveness – Each participant is asked to give a pack of cookies to their worst enemy, fostering reconciliation and healing. 

IMPORTANT

Please be sure to read the baking instructions HERE!
Please freeze your cookies after baking & cooling before bagging them for transport.
