Went to our old church today--my son still attends there and he was singing a solo. At first, I was planning on slipping in the back after the service started and then leaving after my son sang, but my son talked me into going a little early to talk to people. It was very weird!!!!!!! The pasturd (to borrow a term others have used here that I LOVE!!!) Actually came over and said "Hi", but of course couldn't stay to visit--had something important to do. Several people came over and greeted us warmly and said how much they missed us (funny, they must not have phones because none have called). In some ways it felt good, because I managed to stay and hear my son and didn't freak out or have a panic attack. We did leave before the message--that would have been too much. All in all, I'm glad we went--must be farther along in healing than I thought.

New member,
Until this forum, I couldn't imagine anybody else had the same situation, but I'm amazed at how many people have similarities.

I went to mine tonight for my son's sake also. He stayed with the church since he likes the youth group and is going on the mission trip.

This just seems to drag on and on.

I've been crying ever since because I miss so many and can't tell them why I left.

Good part is that I feel much stronger and not ashamed of myself, like I can face them and hold my head up. I was pretty trembly though when I got to the car.

Seems time strengthens us greatly. Glad you're doing better too. I felt stronger after it was over with, like I had faced my fears.

:( :confused:

I began to think every one in my old Church had "lost" or had their phones disconnected :confused:

( I used to pick up the phone to see if there was a dial tone, ar helloooo??) :D

Turned out the Vicar had told them ,NOT to have any contact with me because I was being influenced by the enemy........ :eek: oh, and Demonic spirits "transfer" , (meaning if they so much as touched me they might 'catch ' the Jezebell spirit, rebellious spirit, etc......) :rolleyes: :eek:

I kid you NOT!
This is an Anglican Minister telling the congregation, that demonic spirits transfer by touch........and you should "cut soul ties" after talking to "people like me"!!

He's even published a book!!!

You're doing good Pat!
My daughter wants to go back to Youth group and play guitar.......some of the same kids, different church, it's a scary notion for me :( :confused: )

Love
Kerrin ;)

Do you find it hard to hear your son talk about your old church? Everytime my son talks about what is going on there, part of me wants to tell him to keep quiet and never tell me anything about them, and another part wants to hear every detail. Feel so stupid sometimes. Why do I still care

I'm glad you shared that. I thought something was wrong with me. We must be normal. Every sunday I ask him who preached and what the sermon was on (I keep hoping they'll hear a sermon and realize they need to make things right with me)

I had to go to the church today to bring a form in, it just goes on and on, I feel like a hostage!! If I could only have a clean cut.

Dear Jerry,

I sure love your posts--very pithy.

If I ever have occasion to go talk to my old pasturd again, can I take you along???
