Synopsis
Forty Weeks: Letters from Prison is a tremendous spiritual tool to be used both by the incarcerated and those who offer them pastoral and spiritual guidance. It can also be a great resource for the families of those who are incarcerated. In August of 2016, Fr. Watson, president of Sacred Story Institute and author of the original Forty Weeks: An Ignatian Path to Christ with Sacred Story Prayer, received a letter from a federal inmate seeking spiritual advice. His name is Richard Rafael Roman or just simply, Ritchie. He had been given a copy of Forty Weeks by a Catholic deacon friend of his: Patrick Logsdon. Their relationship went back to 1987 when Ritchie lived in Anthony House, a Catholic transitional home for addicts and former felons seeking a way back into society. The house was run by Deacon Pat and sponsored by the St. Vincent de Paul Society in the Diocese of Rockville Centre, NY. Ritchie, in his early fifties when he first contacted Fr. Watson, was starting year nineteen of a twenty-five-year sentence for armed bank robbery. He was sent to prison in 1997. Ritchie and Fr. Watson corresponded for a month or so before it was suggested Ritchie go through the Forty Weeks program and write questions for each week of the program. Fr. Watson agreed he would send him advice for each week. The covenant was that Ritchie give his permission for Fr. Watson to publish the correspondence in a special version of the Ignatian formation program, Forty Weeks, to be called Letters from Prison. Fr. Watson was convinced that working together he and Ritchie could help many incarcareted find the Lord of healing, hope, and peace through a special edition of Forty Weeks. If the Forty Weeks spiritual program was helping Ritchie so much, how many more could be helped with the addition of his personal story and reflections, along with some of Fr. Watson's spiritual advice? Ritchie readily agreed. It is the prayer of both Fr. Watson and Ritchie that many of the incarcerated who believe they have no value or future can find in the healing light of Christ through the Forty Weeks Letters from Prison, a new hope to believe that they have a Sacred Story that Christ can make possible even in prison., Forty Weeks: Letters from Prison is a tremendous spiritual tool to be used both by the incarcerated and those who offer them pastoral and spiritual guidance.
