7 Ways To Stop Abuse & Bullying!

We get letters, phone calls, emails, face book messages from desperate children, teens, parents, and workers every day! People are being bullied and they want it to stop! Believe me, we want it to stop too!

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

Mission Accomplished or Is It?

Sunday ended our last weekend for our Walk n Talk Across Michigan to Stop Abuse & Bullying. On one end I was glad, on the other end sad. I was glad because we have a lot of speaking engagements coming up and our 2nd Annual Benefit for CHANGE on October 16, 2011. I was sad because we met a lot of people who needed help to get free from abuse and some who wanted to help us and others.

We don't always realize it, but the ABUSE realm is HUGE! I'm sure all of us can either say we've been bullied or abused or know someone who has been. Abuse is like a cancer in the world, spreading rapidly.

This is why I know my/our mission will continue.

It's been confirmed through other people as well. When I went to the barber to get the heart in the back of my head redone (shaved into the shape of the heart) I told him that I wouldn't be back because this was the end of our mission. He said, "You're mission is just beginning."

Then a lady I hadn't heard from in years and had no idea what I was doing, emailed me. She had a vision about me/us. She saw a map, a route all in yellow. God had orchestrated the map, and I was the one holding and looking at it. He had given us clear direction of where we (our family) needed to go and what we needed to do.

It encouraged me that God was confirming our mission in other people's lives as well. I'm excited about the road before us, and pray that we can have a huge impact on those hurting, abused, broken and desperate for healing.

Recently I had the opportunity to witness to a young lady addicted to drugs/alcohol and heading down a destructive path, due to the abuse she suffered as a child by her father. She is now CLEAN and serving the Lord. A few days ago I had a dream/vision and wasn't sure what it meant. Yesterday this girl texted me about something she was planning to do, but knew she shouldn't. Right then I knew the dream/vision was for her and I shared it with her. Thankfully, what Satan meant for harm, God turned around for good, as through that vision she was able to thwart the plans of the enemy and follow the Lord!

When my son, Brian, passed away a year ago, I vowed to go all over the world like he wanted to help others who are bullied and abused. We still don't have the funds we need to make a journey of that nature. But we did go all over Michigan this summer and God was faithful to provide everything we needed for this journey. So I know that nothing is impossible with God! If He calls you to it, He will bring you through it!

So my mission continues. And that's fine with me as long as I'm in God's will. I know his will is always the same to CHANGE HEARTS and SAVE LIVES. And that's what we intend to do, whether we're at home in Michigan or on the other side of the world.

There are many ways you can help/partner with us to make this dream/vision come to pass and forward us on this mission God has called us to: through prayer, fasting, volunteering, monthly support/or sponsorship, fundraising, donations or by simply purchasing our brand new CHANGE of HEART for BRIAN bracelets available on our website for only $1 each! http://www.ChangeForBrian.com.
