Letter to the editor — Prison population

Thanks for your excellent article on people in our prisons in the June 28 issue — “Could people of faith be the answer?”. It is indeed sad that we are treating people in prison as our modern-day lepers and untouchables.

I realize that evangelism, missions, disaster relief, women’s rights and poverty are issues that need to be addressed, but we also need to minister to prisoners. Keep up the good work that you are doing.
