Sending Religious Materials to Someone at Maury: What You Need to Know

Religious correspondence courses and sacred texts at Maury Correctional Institution must be pre-approved before anything gets sent in. No exceptions. If the course or text hasn't been approved first, the package will likely be rejected on arrival, even if everything else about it looks fine.

Once the materials or sacred text are approved, they need to ship directly from the vendor, school, or religious institution to the facility. Approved religious materials don't go through TextBehind. Instead, place the order with the organization that provides the materials and have them ship straight to Maury.

Religious correspondence courses and sacred texts are handled differently than regular letters. They require pre-approval before the facility will accept them, and after approval, the materials must come directly from the vendor, school, or religious institution rather than through TextBehind. Get both pieces right (approval first, direct shipping second) and your loved one has the best chance of actually receiving the materials.

1. Get the material pre-approved first - religious correspondence course materials and sacred texts must be approved before they are sent.
2. Order through the vendor or institution - approved materials must be shipped directly from the vendor, school, or religious institution.
3. Make sure the shipment goes to Maury (not through TextBehind) - confirm the sender is addressing and sending it straight to the correctional facility.
