Derived from David Berg's pseudonym, Moses David, the Mo Letters were a series of more than 3000 publications (compiled into over a dozen volumes), consisting of writings and/or transcriptions of Berg's speeches. They were usually recorded by his mistress Karen Zerby and submitted to World Services (WS) staff for transcription, security censorship and editing. Most were distributed to Family members within weeks of their initial creation, and members lived in anticipation of "new wine" which might alter their lives dramatically.
The majority of Mo Letters belong to the Disciples Only (DO) category, meaning they are not to be shared with outsiders, on penalty of excommunication.
Since Berg's death, Good News magazines, the majority by Karen Zerby or Steven Kelly, continue to often be referred to as the Letters.
