About Our Prison Ministry
On Fire Ministries was formally registered as a non-profit society and registered charity on June 19th, 1999, though Rev. Bunnie Klassen, the founder of the ministry, has been doing God`s work following the mandate the Lord gave to her through Matthew 25:35-40 which reads:
35: "For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;36: I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me: I was in prison and you came to me.37: Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, "Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?38: When did we see You a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe You?" 39: "Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?" 40: And the King will answer and say to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me."
Although Rev. Bunnie is ordained as a Pentecostal Evangelical minister, On Fire Ministries is non-denominational, believing that we, as Christians, all comprise the body and bride of Christ. In accordance with the above scripture, On Fire Ministries has provided food, clothing, temporary shelter, household items and furniture to many the Lord has sent. We have provided, along with these items, Christian counsel, fellowship and encouragement. We have developed an inmate written newsletter that currently goes out to individuals in 11 countries of the world. Such diverse places as Russia, Japan, Sweden, Zambia, and India being amongst them. The newsletter articles, devotions, artwork poetry and devotionals are almost entirely written by inmates who have come to know the Lord Jesus as their personal Savior, providing the Christian inmate with a vehicle to do outreach from where they are. They are sent to On Fire Ministries where Rev. Bunnie edits and compiles the newsletter, sends it to print and mails it out. We have found lawyers for inmates facing court, contacted family members on behalf of inmates, provide fellowship through Christian pen-pals as well as provide Christian books, literature and Bibles. Rev. Bunnie travels to various prisons and street missions in Canada and the US bringing with her a message of hope and encouragement to those behind bars and the lost and largely ignored of our society. She also has invitations to minister in missions in two provinces in India, a church in Kuwait and in Australia.
