Letters from Stephen W. Winter to his parents , January - February 1968

This set of 8 letters ranges in dates from early January to late February of 1968. In these letters to his parents, a recurring topic is his board meeting scheduled to be in early February. He transitions from having lots of faith in God and being ready for the meeting, to admitting that it is very hard to keep faith in religion when facing reality. In mid February he gets a concerning letter from a finance manager in Kansas City, MO to which Stephen owes money. The finance manager isn't fully aware of Stephen's situation so Stephen asks his parents to contact the manager and postpone his debt until after prison. Stephen's board meeting did not go as planned and he was given another year delay before his next board meeting, meaning he won't be going home for at least a year.
