Thank you, sir.

Short list of items needed: diapers baby formula desitin antibiotic ointment (like Neosporin) toiletries pedialite ensure pepto bismol immodium kaopectate tampons/pads toys (balls in particular) Purel rubbing alcohol bug repellant tents cots mosquito netting Clothingwhite t-shirts/cotton t-shirts note: used clothing has to be sorted, laundered and the sizes are not readily apparent, whereas new clothing can be distributed as is This is just a partial list. The baby items are in great need right now.

Help is also needed to scan message boards, take/make phone calls, send emails, etc. Things that can be done from home with very little effort.

TYVM Mark! :D--> Two things I have found out this morning: 1)FEMA/gov't is requesting that volunteers/volunteer orgs NOT go into NO and other areas right now. 2)There is a HUGE need for volunteers to go into disaster areas. Monetary and other donations are VERY needed and are making a huge difference, however actual people to help do the work is lacking. A call was put out on CNN this morning for anybody with even rudimentary medical skills to help triage people. From my contact I have learned that they are expecting to open up NO and other areas to volunteers this next week.

I just spoke with a woman at Operation USA and got a whole lot of great information on how to help. http://www.opusa.org/ (contact phone # in the middle of the page above the hurricane picture)

Ooops...that was just NO. Here's the general url: http://www.craigslist.org/

Starting this thread as sort of a 'catch all' thread to post information to help with Katrina disaster relief. Here is a great link to begin with: http://neworleans.craigslist.org/

On abortions and twi's wonderful family values... I was 15yo, a ward of the court, and literally forced to have an abortion..."either in the hospital with your mother by your side, or here in my office, handcuffed, with two police women by your side." That was the 'choice' given to me by my probation officer. I mourn my baby to this very day. I still carry terrible guilt, shame and sorrow. I am now 46yo. This was pre-twi...but was the trigger that sent me looking into 'alternative' religions. TWI came into my life within the year. When I was 18yo and pregnant with my daughter, it was a HUGE blessing from God that twi did not know early enough to tell me to have an abortion. What happened instead was that twi did everything they could to talk me into giving my daughter up for adoption. When I say 'twi' I mean my limb leader acting on what he claimed was instructions from HQ. I mean that twi, via the Kansas Limb, was going to handle all the legal proceedings and was going to give my baby to a corpse couple who couldn't have children. Why would/did twi give a dang about my particular situation? Because my fiancé was going to go WOW and they didn't want me or my baby to interfere with his 'service to God'. Well, he didn't go WOW that year. He instead married me and gave the marriage a real gung-ho try of 2 full months before he left me stranded. After that, my Limb Leader kept heavy pressure on me to give up my baby to twi. There were daily phone calls from him. He even got my parents and my grandparents involved to 'convince' me. In the meantime, my husband filed for divorce. Although the divorce had not even gone to court yet, he was allowed to go WOW the next opportunity. He went WOW leaving me and my baby to exist on $90/mo. No gun, though. A gun would have been kinder. And, oh, did I forget to tell you about when I got pregnant with my second child? You know, in Alaska? When I was told by my Limb Leader, my twig leader, my branch leader and many of my co-twiggies that my child was 'a son of Satan'? Oh yeah...I think I've mentioned this before. Sorry for boring you all... But again, no gun (well, one of them did sit outside my apartment building all night, night after night, for several nights, with a gun in his lap, but let's not count that... --> ). A gun would have been too kind. *************************** WordWolf, What he said to me was edited out before I could quote it. Since I can't 'prove' what he said, I will take what I said back.

Maybe it's all just Mother Earth taking a bath...

rascal, OM told me a long time ago that I shouldn't take any letters I received from vpw as actually from vpw himself because there were many people who opened and answered vpw's mail. I asked him how he knew this and he said that he used to do it for vpw all the time. ************************ Abortion wasn't legal until 1973. What was the pregnancy policy/fetus theory of twi before 1973?

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. II Timothy 3:1-8 KJV This is, always was and always will be twi in a nutshell. TWI was founded in strife of brother against brother (without natural affection and disobedient of parents); has a legacy of adultery, fornication, rape, incest and pedophilia (lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God); and publicly scorned all other churches (despisers of those that are good). To say the least. I could go on, however this is not my point. My point is one I've made before and apparently need to make again: TWI took it upon itself to become 'leadership' over God's people. Once twi did this, twi was responsible to lead into righteousness...and those who followed were responsible to follow. For twi to now say, "There was no gun to your head" is the same as Adam saying, "But the woman you gave me..." God set Adam to lead Eve, not vice versa. Adam was held responsible. TWI took it upon itself and proclaimed that God set them to lead His people, not vice versa. TWI will be held responsible. It has already begun. ************************************ OM, the thing that gets to me all the time about you is that I keep forgetting that you were NOT one of the 'rank and file' folks...that you WERE one of the folks that did things like run around with the old vicster in the motorcoach...and read and answer his mail (so you've claimed). It's finally dawned on me that you, by your own free will, were a functioning part of the behind-the-scenes slime. It's finally dawned on me that you REFUSE to be held accountable in any way, shape or form. So your only other alternative is to deny, deny deny...and blame and rationalize. Well, now that I understand this, I can freely be angry with you without any guilt.

Naked bee-keeper? I wanna see pics!!!! ;)--> I fergetted about my evil triplet sisters. One of them is 50-50...the other, in all variations, comes out 1% evil, 99% good. Me? I come out 1-99 in all variations. That can't be right. I think we've broken the thing...

I want to put Sunday sermons up on the 'net so others can freely listen to them. The files are compressed. The average sermon is 57 minutes. The little "estimated time left" bar tells me it's going to take 104 hours for EACH sermon to upload to my host files!!! Tell me there's a better way! Tell me your secrets!!!

Um, Speed...are you OK?

At least now I know why this book was so attractive to me at 16yo...'loafing' became 'work'...for others. I mean, it's right there plain and simple. VP wouldn't do his chores, but he wanted things done 'right and up to snuff' and was one of 'our German people' who 'were not afraid of work'. Yeah...everybody else doing the work to vp's oh so high standards... ::shiver::

Hmmmmm. At the bottom of this page is a link to CFFM. And on this page of CFFM's site is a link back to Another Way Ministry. Hmmmmm.

Mo, I think you know by now that this persona posting as mj412 is not who he/she presents him/herself to be. A very telling quote posted by this persona posting as mj412: "I am not a CPS worker never have been. I work in customer service in a store of sorts. lol" (Just in case the person goes back and changes this admission, I have the screen print.) As soon as I read the above admission, I was immediately reminded of a man I know who manages a porn shop. He says almost the exact same thing about his 'business'...and he's a perp. I have documented this persona's posts for a long, long time. Always claiming to be a mucky-mucky of some sort in the Social Services...and then this admission that he/she is not at all employed by and Social Services agency. This can only mean that this persona's 'experience' in the Social Services arena is as a client, a spouse/significant other/family member of a perp, or a perp him/herself. This persona's posts make it very clear to me that his/her experience is not as a client... The only good coming out of his/her diatribes is that you get the chance to say the things you were never allowed to say to those who tormented your life. Rock on, girl!
