Christian Library International

International Affiliates
 

It is our heart's desire to distribute Christian books and Bibles to prisons in all countries worldwide.

 

Costa Rica

In January, 2008, Christian Library International established CLI-Costa Rica. In San Jose, Costa Rica, a team of volunteers collects and distributes Christian books and Bibles in Spanish to Costa Rica's twenty prisons and detention centers.

Canada

In July, 2008, Christian Library International visited Canada and met with several chaplains and spoke with other prison ministries. There is a great need for Christian books in Canadian prisons. Through much prayer a volunteer has come forward to lead this mission. We expect CLI-Canada to be fully operational early in 2009.
