staunch devotion to Our Blessed Lady’s
Immaculate Heart is simply incredible.
When I was facing life in prison and
was in the hole, I cried out to Mary for
the first time in my life. To my great awe,
She answered me. I was overwhelmed
by tears and such a feeling of love.
The Rosary prayer is so important! It
keeps me calm amidst this chaos. My
anger fades and grace floods my heart.
St. Philomena is very powerful to help
me remain pure. Now, I have a parole
date. I plan on giving the rest of my
life to God. Please send a calendar; it
will be the last one I need in prison.

Thank you for your quick reply. The
experience of coming to prison has been
horrifying. If it had not been for the
renewal of my Catholic Faith, I am quite
certain I would not have made it. The
support you have given me is amazing.
I have no doubt God has sent many
angels to help me on this journey. Our
facility is fairly liberal so you can send
books, Sacramentals, prayer cards, holy
pictures, DVDs, etc. Everything you send
will be a blessing. Thank you for your
support of prisoners across the world.
Often we are treated as less than
human. Our Fr. Joseph Klee reminds
us that we are God’s children who
made terrible choices but God loves us!
God bless you! < Chris - OH >
I received your note. It is unfortunate
that they sent the Scapular back to
you. This unit loves to be difficult; one
minute we can get them, the next day
they send them back. I ask God to give
me patience to deal with all of it.
Hopefully, time will change all this
and the dislike this prison has for
Catholics will dissolve. Keep us in
your prayers. < Daniel - TX >
I am your member since 2018. I am
going to help facilitate the RCIA class.
I love learning about Catholicism. We
can never stop learning. Please send
me any new reading material you may
have. I love reading your literatures
because I learn so much. We can all
help save the world, one soul at a time,
one Decade at a time, one Rosary at a
time! I know that for a fact because,
through your kindness, generosity, love
and prayers, you all helped save my
soul. God bless you all! < Antonio >
Even though I have gotten my hands
on your materials, this is the first time
I am writing to you. I thank you for
educating us in the true Christian Faith.
I am a born and devoted Catholic who
struggles with his crosses, and your
literature helps me very much. I would
love to have your 2020 Calendar. It
helps so much to plan novenas, prayers,
feasts and upcoming holy days. I am
locked in a cell most of the time and
your materials are the only way for
m e to stay sane. Thank you so much.

One of my friends here at prison gave
me your materials. I read all the stuff
you sent him. Please continue to send
your things to overcome the darkness
here. I need many prayers to guide me
home and see me safely through this
living hell. I am so afraid I will never
make it home. You are a light that
shines and a beacon of hope. There
is lots of gang activity here. It is a very
harsh place. I have been in prison for
25 years. < Daniel - GA >
The South Mississippi Correctional
Center is said to be run by the prisoners.
The gangs make the rules and violence
