Sylvie is a great letter writer, and a great letter reader. She loves to get letters, and says she has made many new friends in the Army OF Good. She asked if I could bring her more notecards and she said yes. I asked her if she needed stamps, and she said yes. We are working together to fill out the addresses on her letters, many of them get returned, and Sylvie turns them into prayers.

I’ll bring some tomorrow. Maria and I are doing Bingo night again on Friday. We have to figure out some new prizes, I gave gift certificates to some of the winners two weeks ago, and it turns out one of them took the certificate to the convenience store, cashed it in and tried to buy some liquor.

It didn’t work, but we are getting some different prizes for this Friday.

Sylvie doesn’t play Bingo, but she loves getting letters, they mean a great deal to her.

You can write Sylvie c/o The Mansion, 11 S.Union Avenue, Cambridge, N.Y., 12816.
