My dad - always maintained that St. Joseph's Penny was really for the Nun's gin money  
Have always wondered whether the missions really do as much good as they make out - presumably education in poorer countries is a good thing but I don't like the fact that it is closely tied to religious indoctrination.
I always think of the film "The Mission" which tells such a terrible story.
