The correspondence ministry of OCPM was begun by Father Duane Pederson and the letters are known as a “visit-by-mail.”
Due to David C. Patton’s long-time contribution to the correspondence ministry through the mailing of his publication, Dynamis, to people in prison and a generous grant from the David Patton Foundation, this aspect of OCPM’s ministry is now known as the David C. Patton Correspondence Ministry.
