When I first arrived to Newberry county, I visited a church to thank them for a donation. I wrote about this earlier on in my blog, but was holding back how it affected me, and possibily unknowingly, everyone in that room. It would have been the first time I had been to a church service in a very very long time. I didn’t want to go, but not only was it the right thing to do, its why I was here in the first place.  The minister knew I was going to share my testimony - which included abuse within the church, and try to explain what I was trying to do within the community. Upon arriving he shook my hand, thanked me for being there and asked if I wanted to speak before or after the guest speaker/preacher. Of course, this was his show, I asked him to do what he needed to do. I take my seat near the back entrance and focus on my breathing and finger taps. The worship concludes and the guest speaker starts his sermon. His sermon is based on slavery. Exodus 21. So when he brings his 9…10...

From: Elizabeth Date: Sat, Jan 31, 2026 at 12:36 PM Subject: Wrote this a couple days ago. To: John, Kay       Just so you know, I know. I am very disappointed in you. My father, my Savior, the one who never disappoints, who never deceives, who never uses a human being as a generational chess piece, or ask for a human sacrifice that only the depths of this world would request,(Judges 11) will avenge, not only me but every single girl and boy you coveted. Their very nature, the spiritual makeup, the goodness you saw in them that you could not allow is being stored up for the final hour. You allowed your pride to snuff out others' joy. You allowed your greed to take from those who had nothing. You stole not only ideas, but you stole another's future. You COVETED everything in this world to appease an insatiable hunger for things and lives that never belonged to you. You turned families into tools of destruction. You've turned governments, healthcare and law enforcement...

Mission Restoration is a property that had been winterized since 2016 and was being reclaimed by the Sumter National Forest in Newberry County, South Carolina. This 1.78-acre property includes a small home constructed in the 1940s, which is in need of major restoration. My desire is to utilize this serene retreat in nature to create a space where a few come at a time to regain their confidence through creative and ever-evolving opportunities.  However, Mission Restoration is more than just restoring the home and property; it is also about restoring our spirits. Here, we will work alongside the tranquility of nature while engaging in the physical restoration of the land and home. Each application of our efforts aims to foster a sense of healthy pride and confidence that individuals may have been lacking, helping them take the next step in their lives. There is a therapist out of Columbia willing to give free sessions to anyone who comes for a short stay at the Mission.  The go...

I’ve met an Ohio couple here in Newberry County. They lived not far from where my grandparents lived. Us yanks got to stick together. They are actually the first people I got to meet when I got here. They’ve invited me to church multiple times, after explaining my hesitation they were instantly more gentle and understanding in their invitations. Not all Christians have been. My favorite is, “God didn’t do that…” Yup, I know now. I’m blessed to have made it out of the darkness to have learned that. See,  others hurt by the church may not have that understanding yet, and that’s why I’m here. Last week they invited me to their Church Christmas Party. I felt able and more than willing. The people were amazing. Laughter, games, and good food/fellowship. I got to briefly speak with the minister and his wife, former missionaries in Africa. I look forward to sitting down with them when they return from their Christmas travels. I believe their experience...

The book of Jubilees, which was found with the Dead Sea Scrolls, yet excluded by men of religious authority, states that Saturdays are the true Sabbath. It is actually still revered in a couple religions today. Families were to stay home and praise and immerse “themselves” in the presence of the Creator of all things.  Yet, religion insists we leave our homes on Sundays to be given a word from a man. Why do we allow the one day set aside for our Creator to be planned out and delegated by a man? See, even religion can become a distraction to what is the most important proclamation of our lives… We can proclaim it all day long. Are we truly submerged in it? Where would we find the time? Convenient. Are we walking it? We have to earnestly seek the Truth to follow Him. I assure you, most of the ministers in the pulpits have been just as deceived as those in the pews. We need to study ourselves. We need to allow HIM to speak to us. Not man. To give our Common Creator back the control th...
