Hi, everyone! Happy New Year.....I still can't figure out how to post just to everybody, etc., so hope this goes thrugh....went home to Heaven (Maine) day after Christmas.....the church's insurance company wants to meet with my therapist and attorney, without me there....will have to talk to my therapist about this. I thought it would be an excellent idea, since the reason I went to my therapist, was because of the church abuse, but he (therapist) said he doesn't think it would be in my best interest, and he is really super-protective of his clients.......I still think I would like him to meet with the insurance company and attorney, though...wanna get this thing over with! The really hurtful thing (forgot all about it) was when my daughter mentioned the gorgeous dress she bought for my grandchild (2 yrs.) to be in the church Christmas program........that really stung, to know I can never see her/them again at church...well, I could....but hey......I'm not into masochism!! Love you all.....hugs, Alice...got an abusive e-mail from my website, sounds like someone from my church; they wanted me to justify my divorce and behavior. I decided not to respond, although it was killin' me not to! LOL! I wanted to say: i refused to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person!!! Grins (wacalice@aol.com)..www.churchabusepoetrytherapy.c om (4,854 hits now!)..oh, P.S. Marched in the Christmas parade in (Rochester) Michigan----first time it was ever on tv---120,000 people there!! -I was in my uniform (the only woman veteran)......enjoyed myself immensely---doing the Queen's wave, ya know!!

Happy New Year to you too! Glad you were able to visit your secular "heaven." You sound in good spirits, in spite of all that is going on with the insurance bit etc. Will be keeping you in prayer.

If you'd be so kind, please check out my post to "ex-shep" at http://www.christianrecovery.com/vb/showthread.php?p=4328#post4328. I'm going to an Epiphany service tonight at "my" church where I had what amounted to a public shaming last Sept. MUSIC is the lure which makes me REALLY want to be there---plus wanting to be able to receive the Eucharist again in that envirionment. I find, however, that the closer it is to time to go, the more my little heart is going "pitty-pat," so I know I'm not quite "healed" from all of this.

Pray please that all goes well!

Thanks!

Love and prayers--

P.S. Wish I could have seen you in parade! How "nifty" that you were there in uniform!!! :D Good for you!
