"Girl Erased"

Girl Erased

Last night I saw the movie, Boy Erased for many reasons. First of all, I wanted to support the LGBTQ community by spreading awareness and informing the public that conversion therapies are psychologically, physically and spiritually damaging.

Second, I wanted to embrace solitude while, I watched this movie. Intuitively, I knew in my heart that something would trigger PTSD and... it did. I started hyperventilating in the theater when the preacher running this program, in order to convert gay young men to becoming straight, was yelling with a Bible in his hands. He told one young boy during a sermon that God could not love him or accept him into His Kingdom. Once again the past rang in my ears, "God could not love me. God could not love me. God could not love me." The familiar intense sound pierced my hearing like a siren from a darker dimension. It was in that very moment of hatred, portrayed on screen, when I absolutely lost it. Staff and students also beat this boy with a Bible and encouraged other children in the congregation to do the same. 

Although Victory Christian Academy (the reform school I was locked up into) wasn't a conversion therapy, they treated us as if we were untouchables to God. In this American hellhole for adolescent girls, shame was born so to speak and hid under the flag of religion.

To shun your child for being honest about who they are and then not accepting them into your so called kingdom (your home) is the cruelest possible sin that exists on this planet. To have a congregation make a child feel unwelcome in His Kingdom is speaking for a demonic god. The High Power of Love does not hate, separate or abandon. This doesn’t make any sense and does not sit right with my heart.

I am not that girl that has been erased. Nor will I rest until, we as a nation go down the right path and close down these torture camps ending further spiritual damage.

Hephzibah House-Being Forced to Wear Diapers

Mary Kumar's Story... Mary Kumar is a survivor of a lockdown reform school for the wayward . This boarding school for girls is located in Winona Lake, Indiana called, Hephzibah House. It was founded in 1971. Anderson Cooper covered a thorough investigation of the boarding school for girls and no one has made any efforts to close down this program of torment . Is child abuse illegal? Yes. If we allow this home for girls to stay open for business then we are condoning it. Parents are feeding these programs by a. sending their child to these institutions. b. money. Parents Parents are usually brainwashed by their church or other organizations. They are consistently fed this spiel: "If you do not enroll your child in this program, they will end up dead!" Parents usually cannot see their child for months at a time. I'm a survivor of a sister program, Victory Christian Academy and I could not speak or see my parents for three months. By that time, the chi

Jodi Hobbs’ Story

Jodi Hobbs is a survivor of Victory Christian Academy and the founder of Survivors of Institutional Abuse ( SIA-now.org ). She started this non-profit organization as a means for other survivors to have a support system, become empowered and take action against child abuse in teen programs. The troubled teen industry is a billion dollar industry and many of these programs horrifyingly, operate TODAY. At the age of seventeen-years old, Jodi was tricked into going to a locked down reform school. Staying out late and partying, her parents felt she was going down a wrong path. This Christian reform school was a recommended option from other parents who had their child in this tough love program . Located in Ramona, California, the 12-foot fence with barbed wire on top, enclosed Victory Christian Academy. Once the gate closed, girls were trapped in with no way out with hardly any windows. Surveillance cameras surrounded the premises making it difficult to runaway and staff wo

Rescue Girls Held Captive Inside the Hephzibah House!

Last night on Christmas, captive girls in a locked down boarding school spent the night in fear and anxiety. They tossed and turned while holding in their urine and bowel movements. If they ask permission to use the facilities, girls will get punished. They are forced to wear diapers if an accident happens, berated, malnourished, forced child labor without pay (slavery), spiritual damage and yet, it continues to operate today? If one “gets wind” of a parent doing this to their child, one could call social services and most likely remove the child from the home. However, parents can hire a program such as this one, and it remains open without a repercussion? The Hephzibah House story also made CNN news! So why didn’t it shut down after the media exposure, countless police reports of child abuse, numerous YouTube video testimonies... So money dictates this country? Prove me wrong. Share this, if you have a problem with the Hephzibah House being open for business! These owners do not de
