Roger’s Writers

Pope Francis asks us “to make room in our hearts for those who have sinned, those who have made mistakes and are in jail.” St. Scholastica partners with Companions Journeying Together to start a pen pal club; parishioners will have the opportunity to be a pen pal with a person who is imprisoned.  

Mail time is very hard for those who never receive a card or letter.  Will you consider joining our club?

Companions offers us a post office box to use as a return address, and they will also provide training.

Being present to a person in prison can make a big difference. One prisoner expressed it this way, “When you have someone writing to you regularly it really does affect a person’s whole attitude and outlook.”
