The Letter
Grandma Edith’s letter read, “For the past 10 years, NOT ONE person has ever called me, come to visit me, or sent me a note to tell me that they cared about me. Not one minister, not one deacon, not one of the church women, not one of the church members who I worked with for all of those years, loved dearly and thought were my friends.” She added, “I worked very hard for you when you needed me, for many, many years. But when I needed you and your church, you all pretended that I didn’t exist.” Near the back, Daniella was trying her best to contain her giggles.

The letter then exposed all of the pastors’ poor conduct and greed. Edith described how when they were trying to take her money. The two had only shown interest. Edith’s letter continued, “I realized that I had allowed my church to break my heart for one last time. But that was the last time. The VERY last time.” However, because the next portion was the payback, this was not the end of the letter.
