Whenever Peoples Temple presented itself for the first time to a government official \u2013 from the Prime Minister of Guyana, to a congressman whom the Temple believed could help them in a child custody battle \u2013 the letter of introduction often included a 25-page summary of endorsements and statements of support. With hundreds of quotes from a vast array of elected officials, policy makers, religious leaders, community activists, medical doctors, lawyers, the media, and educators, the packet was designed to answer questions about the Temple\u2019s credibility and to offer assurances of the group\u2019s standing in the world at large.<\/p>\n
