There's a young girl I know who recently started going to the church I grew up in. She was sucked in because she had little friends and was, at first, "loved to death" by the members of the group, then she was brainwashed. Now she's apparently been selected to marry one of the few young guys in the group, as she is the only available single girl for him to marry (very small church membership and they dont marry outside the church).
She has good parents who are not pentecostals but don't really understand what their daughter is getting into.... I think if her parents and siblings were aware of the danger, they would convince her to leave before she goes too far.
So, what can you do to help? I'd like for everyone who has been separated from his/her family because of Pentecostalism to please briefly post on this thread how it has separated you from your family and the pain it has caused. It's hard to do that in a few words......but if possible, that would be great. I want to send a copy of this thread (I plan to print it out) to this girl's mother. And, I'm hoping her hearing of others will allow her to see the danger her daughter is in. Although I dont know her that well, I do know she's a great mother and is bound to influence her daughter if we can provide her with our stories.
Will you help?
