Read full description

Know Ministries is a registered 501c3 nonprofit organization. Our mission is to provide Bibles to children in the inner cities. We have a passion for sharing the love of Jesus with children in need. We partner with churches and organizations in the inner cities to reach children and disciple them. We believe in the power of working together. Know Ministries was founded in December 2016 by Bishop Barlow. As a senior in high school, Bishop formed a nonprofit designed to minister to children in the inner cities by providing Bibles to them. Know Ministries provided its first set of Bibles in March 2017. Since then, we have continued to work with different ministry partners to provide Bibles to children. We work to meet the needs of the children while learning more about the children. We will continue to work to change the inner cities. Our desire and hope is to see children from different inner city communities across the world learn about the hope and love of Jesus by receiving their own Bible.
