This is a bit of a spinoff from something Elsewhere posted in another thread:
He will also perform eight hours of community service each month for the next 15 years
I bet he won't be late turning in any of his FS reports durring that 15 years!
Does anyone know of JWs who visit fellow brothers in jail to collect a monthly report, or deliver magazines to place?
Nos, i can only tell you how it us to be . It;s hard to keep track with the night in all , but yes, they do collect a monthly report and deliver those very much needed magazines for toilet paper.
no i do not know of a brother like that
but i do know of a (so called) brother in the white rock , bc congregation who not only did a year (albeit part of it on the electronic leg bracelet) in jail, but did a month in jail after arrest, was denied bail then got it with a $25,000 post
his name is roy duquette, all for the beating he laid on his wife
and never was disfellowshipped, after all, he was under a lot of stress in his marriage

My JW relative goes to the prisons once a week and has studies with them.

Since I work in a Jail. I have noticed there is a local congregation that has contact with the jail's chaplain. They are allowed to leave books and magazines with the chaplain which are distributed during the chapel service. That's funny, isn't that like making dealings with Babylon the Great, because the Chaplain and the chapel service are non-denominational christian?
Hi Jayhawk1, I also work in a jail as a corrections officer. I have seen several inmates reading WT literature over the last 5 years I have worked there, but I dont believe the JW's hold any bible studies in Jail, with the exception of the occasional Elder visiting his son in Jail for armed robbery. By the way my Dad is an Elder and he has done a few prison ministries I believe. One more thing, my wife is originally from Kansas, near Topeka. Have we talked before? you seem familiar.
