Stamp Out Loneliness
Patmos Ministries is currently collecting stamps and funds to purchase 400,000 stamps For 133,000 currently incarcerated women throughout state and federal prisons in the United States.
The stamps will be distributed by the facilities so that women can maintain or resume communication with their loved ones, including their children who may live too far away to visit.
While paper and glue cannot replace a human touch, a stamp will help to carry messages of love and hope.
Please send your stamps or contributions to:
