My son, Brian, had Asperger's Syndrome and a rare heart disease and was bullied all through life. But more than anything he wanted to go all the USA to educate others, raise awareness, share his story & and offering healing to all, even though he'd been on the heart transplant list for 5 years.
Brian knew what it was like to hurt, but he also knew what it was like to heal. He loved everyone (even the bullies!) and had a passion to give that gift of love and forgiveness to others.
Sadly, last year as we were planning our trip around the USA, he passed away from a blood clot. He always said, "Mom, you can't go without me!"
On Brian's 23rd birthday we launched 23 balloons with the message "How Far Will You Go To Stop Abuse?" in his memory, to see how far they'd go. Some of them were reported being found 90 miles away! That was cool! But that wasn't enough...
This summer we raised our own funding and went on a Walk n Talk Across Michigan, over 1,000 miles (of driving--then we walked around each major city--15 total) talking to people, offering FREE HEALING WORKSHOPS in schools, churches, work places and communities. But that still wasn't enough...
We know we are called to complete the mission in Brian's memory, to go all over the USA and even the WORLD to STOP ABUSE and with your help we can do just that! IF we can get this healing message to the entire world, then that will be enough!
How Far Will You Go
To Stop Abuse?
The great news is, you can stay right where you are and still stop abuse.
There are 7 ways to Stop Abuse & Bullying right from where you are:
1# By not standing by when others are abused--do something, say something, go get help! REPORT ALL BULLYING!
2# By not allowing others to physically, verbally, emotionally or spiritually abuse you! Stand up for yourself!
3# By treating others the way you yourself would like to be treated! Do unto others
4# By telling all your friends, family, coworkers, church family, schools, community about our program Abuse Bites
5# By volunteering in our program, right from your desktop, computer, office, home, etc
6# By praying for us diligently as we take on this huge mission God has called us to (for funding, open doors in schools/communities, health, safety, and God's divine will and direction)
7# By donating or sponsoring us so we can have the funding (for gas and food) to travel abroad to share these healing workshops FREE to all :) See ChangeForBrian.com
