Harder and Harder

 To send Bibles and Bible studies to prisoners are getting harder and more complicated as prisons and jails  make new rules to try to stop drugs from coming into them. We had 2 Bibles come back today with the notice No Leather Bibles allowed. We do not give out leather Bibles, the covering is a fake leather and very obviously fake. One only needs to look at it to see it isn't leather and yet ours were rejected. Then we got a notice from the prison in Beeville Texas that we can no longer send Bible studies, all mail must now go to a processing place to be digitalized then it will be placed on a tablet and given to the prisoner. Well how in the world will a prisoner be able to fill out the study and mail it back if it is only on a tablet. Marvin was finally able to talk to a 'real' person about this problem. We are going to try to send the studies out stamped media mail. We shall see. With the Bibles that came back today we were able to send them paper back Bibles. 

Skip wasn't here today so I was busy on the computer to take very many pictures.  Below Marvin is trying to find a phone number to call about the new Texas policy.

Below Bruce and Aunt Jinnie are getting the Bibles ready to be mailed out from the request today while the rest work on folding studies for stuffing.

We didn't have a lot of mail and were able to finish before 11:00 am giving us plenty of time for a treat. Below Sharon is holding the delicious pecan rolls.

As Skip is gone Aunt Jinnie and I took the Bibles and studies to the Hanna City post office for mailing on our way home. Hopefully we can figure out how to get around the new regulations and be able to get prisoners Bibles and studies.
