The world's largest prison ministry is offering over 140,000 families of incarcerated men and women a free kids Bible this Christmas season.

Prison Fellowship has announced that for the first-time ever, it is now able to offer every family of incarcerated prisoners that it serves through its nationwide Angel Tree Christmas gift-giving program a free copy of the Adventure Bible by Zondervan's Zonderkidz imprint to go along with the donated gifts they will receive.

"We have been able to raise the funding, to be frank, quite easily to support this initiative," Prison Fellowship President James Ackerman told The Christian Post. "We are starting this year to give the Angel Tree families the opportunity to have a full-text, high-quality Bible in their home."
