I hope you are all doing well, that your week was great and that this upcoming one will be even better. I've had such amazing messages from people leaving and ready to leave this awful denomination and it helps me with the sad stories i so often hear.
What we are doing here matters and makes a difference. Please, do not stop now! I feel that something is different, there's a change, but people are waking up behind those walls. Eyes are opening and people are seeing that covering up abuse is widespread in that church. They are seeing that they are being controlled and what they are being told doesn't add up. They are realizing that words don't fix or correct things but actions do. And actions are not being taken there. If the church leaders won't listen and answer us, I'm going over them and to the people.
They are starting to see reality. Be gentle with them. It is NOT easy to have everything you believed start to come undone and you realize that so much of what you were taught isn't true. Leaving is the answer but it is also hard because the price is steep. Be kind. Be honest. Be open. Help if you can. Encourage them to speak out. If they mention leaving, help them see the way out. There are a lot of us here. They wouldn't be alone!
I'll post September's get together date soon. It's a packed month for my husband with out of state traveling. It will likely be near the end of the month.
That's all for now! Have a great night.
