Over powering. How can any body doing God's work be so cold and cruel? June, you were an angel and still you are helping so many people understand that the world can be so black but there is light at the end.

I cried from the first page.My mother left a baby there, and I can only imagine the horror that she went through.I have been looking for my brother for years, but it is like banging my head against a wall. How can the clergy have had so much power , and continue to do so still.They have bought all these women off with money, but no apology. I hope they never rest.
