Which Reminds Me

Many years ago there was a time when our church denomination published the names and addresses of the missionaries' children in a publication that was at some time or another distributed in various prisons. Sometimes prisoners who received those publications would write to some of the MKs in the publication, mostly girls. I might have received one or two of those letters myself but those were thrown away immediately. Of course we never write back to the prisoners because we have no idea who they really are or why they are writing to us from a prison. How nice that free board and housing is provided to those of the criminal mindset. However, we would not want to encourage the prisoners to future communication with us. We would not want anyone to think that we also ever lived there or that were ever complicit in their criminal problem. The publication of MK names was later discontinued so I think that problem no longer exists.
