Sometimes as a part of our healing process we feel the need to get back intouch with the faith and beliefs that we had prior to our abuse.
This group was started with DV survivors in mind to help reconnect you to your past beliefs or to find new ones.
We are not attempting to change anyones thoughts of religion but to provide answers to questions that may help you in your journey of reconnecting to your God. We welcome all religious beliefs. And, ask only that you talk with respect for others that may not agree with you. We do not wish for this to become a place where we put people down for their feelings, but a place where we can share our feelings, and our knowledge to help each of us get to the next step in our faith.

Peace Be unto Thee, Stranger(From the book Science of Mind (ISBN: 0-87477-921-9) by Ernest Holmes, © 1937 Ernest Holmes, renewed 1966 by William M. Lynn. Published by Penguin Putnam, New York.)
Peace be unto thee, stranger, enter and be not afraid.
I have left the gate open and thou art welcome to my home.
There is room in my house for all.
I have swept the hearth and lighted the fire.
The room is warm and cheerful and you will find comfort and rest within.
The table is laid and the fruits of Life are spread before thee.
The wine is here also, it sparkles in the light.
I have set a chair for you where the sunbeams dance through the shade.
Sit and rest and refresh your soul.
Eat of the fruit and drink the wine.
All, all is yours, and you are welcome.
