I am born and raised in California and transplanted in Texas. My story begins in 1976 when I excepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. ( I must warn you Im a bad speller..sorry..I do my best...I like to blame public school but really I just am getting old)
My husband and I accepted Christ on the same night by kneeling on the floor of my mothers livingroom and while my pastor and youth pastor were leading us in prayer I became a born again Christian and I felt like a new born baby that night, warm all over, clean inside and out. I felt as if I was bathed in very warm baby oil and then wrapped tightly in a very warm blanket. Wonderful, wonderful night. Smiled all night long.
My life with God began in 1976 but my story began in the heart of God long before I knew who He was and as it is with those whom love God trials set in and thats when God rolls up His sleeves and WOW!!!
In 1980 I witnessed the murder of a 17 yo boy at the hands of a practicing homosexual trying to rape him. Sorry for being so blunt and honest but life is of such material. You can read the young unknown mexican boys story at Sutter County Library article in the Appeal Democrat Newspaper dated Feb. 7, 1980 titled, MAN DIES IN RAILWAY FALL. My husband and youth pastor where on our way to a singspiration in GrassValley Ca when a train passed us and that is when I saw a man push him out the door of the moving train. We stayed with him until help arrived. I have written a book about it titled, THE CHOICE, and I have a web site but I think Im not allowed to share it here because it detracts from this site.I suppose if they let me I will give it to you again. I gave it once but the thread did not appear so its either being read to approve of or it is not kosher. I like the word kosher, even gentiles can use it!
We read the next day that the man was trying to rape the boy and he was fighting for his life. As tragic as all of that was for the boy and for us travelers it really is just the begining of the tragedy because after this I wrote letters to Sacramento legislators mentioning this murder and opposing a bill trying to be passed by the liberal school unions in Ca. to protect homosexual teachers and force Christian schools to hire them and I was targetted.
I speak out now to protect others and esp. students from their organization. My deepest and sincerest plea to you is if you havent already...please remove your children from public schools.
God bless you. I continue to fight the good fight and accept whatever targetting or hatred I receive because it is pure joy to me. Can you understand what pure joy it is to serve God and to know God in heaven loves you! I do! And nothing, or anyone can for any length of time seperate me from God unless God wills it and believe me God uses whatever is done to us to further His work among us! Yours in Christ Jesus my Lord, TLOR! GL
Sister, I went to you site and read your story there, but this fills in some gaps. THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
What a great testimony!
Fight the good fight, Sis! No weapon formed against us can stand. If God is with us, who can be against us?
(This is our kid's last year in public school, btw. Good elementary school, but next year is Middle School...uh, NO WAY! Abeka for us!)
Also, getting the word out about the UNCRC, and undermining of parent's rights...oh, yeah, and the Parental Rights Amendment. You can read about both on
ParentalRights.org
I'm a little on the aggressive side myself...*LOL*...also organizing a
Tea Party Revolt for my local area. (Purely political though.)
I kept all of this inside me for years and years, only my best friend in my home town knew of what happened to me on that campus.
It was after my rededication to God in 1998 ten long years after they attacked me in college when my salvation was restored and life began again for me. I have many scars from 1988 to 1998 and they will always be with me, unfortunately, however because of those very scars I have been blessed by God and He is allowing me to minister by bold approach to many within the homosexual community via websites.
For some reason God is holding me back from personal one on one ministry and I trust God that He knows best and am fully ok with just using the web to tell my story and reach out with the truth. Knowing truth is good, always, and that with it we can overcome evil.
Keep me in your prayers I want to honor and serve God with what is left of the years of my life.
I too am quite overwhelming to most people. Id love to be that country bumpkin housewife back in rural N. California serving God quietly and wholeheartedly, like I was before the targetting but I cant change that anymore than I can change my skin color or nationality so I ask for prayer that God will prevent me from doing anything evil or wrong and to speak out boldly, unashamedly, and sincerely and maybe God will save others from the same group that targetted me. Now wouldnt that be something! And my in heaven God is truely something!How can I not love Him when He takes everything in my life, good , bad and ugly and works it for my good...every single time! Praise Him Holy name.
Hope 7; I can identify your story as I too, had a nephew; turned 20; his father died and I helped raise and mentor him.He was a computer geek, chubby kid, that never grew up, and it felt he still was 12, but my father taught him to take apart computers and rebuild them, and he excelled, and as he learned he was hired by the Fire dept. to oversee all thier computer systems. He did side jobs, and one evening he was working on a computer in a barber shop, and a man entered and shot him 7 times, along with the barber , and they both died on the scene. The man was found , and tried and got 4 years in prison, and was released last year! I find no justice in the system, and it will only get worse as the U.S.rejects G-d laws,promotes Homosexuality as normal,abortion, and of acceptable to G-d,[while saying they are Christians!] and falls from the grace of our forefathers , who set up this country under the statues, and principles of the Bible.Now they are blocking settlements to be built in Israel, and constraining the influcts of the remnant to return home, and eventually the U.S. will fall into the one world system the Bible foretold; of all nations will oppose Israel.But Homosexuality I believe ; when it ran rampade in Sodom and Gommorah , [When the government accepted it] ,is when G-d destroyed the people .We see the freedom of speech being smothered by new laws, and tax exemtions for donations gone. We are in the later days of G-d's turning again to Israel, and when we watch the events unfold there ; We know the seasons of His coming. Be safe, for it is a losing battle, but always speak the truth of the heart of G-d, In Christs love, Robert and Pam. Its coming faster it seems every day?
Dear Robert and Pam,
God bless you. I understand your pain. I recently read a book that was a little helpful titled, WHERE IS GOD WHEN IT HURTS, by Yancey. The thing that jumped out at me was the Yuba City school bus accident was mentioned and I have personal experience with that as I am from that area. I have written poems about it and I find writing things out so helpful in the healing processes. Dont you?
Gods Word is 100 percent true. There are some contradictions but I have found that they arent true contradictions just appropriate remarks for the situation ie some times its good to rebuke a mocker, if the situation is right, and sometimes its just not a good idea. Sometimes you can use the same backward logic on them and throw it back at em and sometimes you cant. Gods perfect Word is right on the money though and when I put my trust in Him I never lose or fail its only when I dont that I mess up.
When the world starts into the end times, which I believe is this generation were currently in, God will bind us all together for added protection. I always see myself as being a servent to someone whom He has protected and thereby also provided His protection. I dont know why I see that but thats how I would like it to be. Loving Jesus who brought me to God or should I say my loving God brought Jesus to me! Either way it works. God bless you.
This is the American Spirit of Independence. It is how our country was founded and it is wonderful. This video could be any town USA, it has a population of 9,000, and 200 souls came out in the snow to say...THIS IS WRONG AND I AM NOT GOING TO BE SILENT ABOUT IT! Good for you. We should all be so dedicated.

My story originates with a self centered man not believing in any G-d, a son of a father who invented weapons of war, and my father a genius at knowledge of the world. He was functionalilty, and I was artistic, with a promising carreer with portraits and art focused of the American Indian, and musical abilities, architectural , and comstruction building and design., and scholarships. I talked my way to what I desired, and was quite decievingly charming in a hateful reprecussion of finality in relationships until one day I fell 25 feet on my head . I died and Yeshua brought me to life, and I saw Him. It took years of realizing how my life had changed and the humility I endured not being pretty faced and limping, and not so endowed with answers!, but being comforted from the demons that attacked my vulnerability, and the words of the Bible that spoke life and comfort from my haunted past. Today I am so wise to know I don't really know anything , but the love Yeshua brings me each day whether I succeed or I fail. His grace always makes me rise to the standard set before me.I know beauty comes from within and not from our eyes , even though I am back together [ almost] A plastic suregon friend said; Robert lets make you young again? I replied I know looks are important in business to achieve success, so make me look like Bill Gates{ just kidding] The body grows old and whithers , but G-d always grows younger , as we become His children. My life has changed so much as I see the beauty of G-d's creation within the spirit of mens souls; His spirit within us ,and the restoration of His mind growing in me ;He has used me to heal others ! to show He has the power to forgive sin the heart of G-d! Peace to all!, and in Jesus name let it rain in Israel once again! Thanyou Lord!
Since blogging on JFJ on their forum site and since supporting International Fellowship of Christian and Jews G*d has blessed me. His word is true that if you bless the chosen ones G*d really does bless you! I love to prove G*ds word is true and its not hard to do if you put some faith into it and then wait as G*ds hand moves across the world.
What good things have happened since supporting Isreal for me and my family?
1. My daughter in law contacted me. Thats a miracle.
2. I have been able to tell my story of the strength of G*d against the powers of darkness.
3. The more I give and the more I support Isreal the more I am blessed...go figure.
4. Single one person income and I can say I have no needs that are not met by my G*d in heaven!
5. Compliments under extreme testing and sucess in all I undertake.
6. A peace that money cannot buy nor can it take away.
7. Able to see and hear beyond anything I have ever experienced in life and gifts from God abundantly more than I deserve or qualify for on merit of anykind.
And I could go on and on. I love God. I dont know why so many dont.
Shalom.
G-d came to me before my son was involved in a large corporate battle involving $100,000.00= finances for lawyers, we had to provide , and the family,and tryed to end his life to save us the agony of his failure. He made some mistakes in not backing up signatures ,etc. and was crucified by others who took his administrative position. G-d showed me in a vision 2 angels would unlock the prison door and set him free as Peter was. G-d told me He had a position in ministry for him. He retained 2 Holy Spirit filled lawyers; unknowingly , and the civil suit ended/settled, and the criminal proceedings are falling apart from fabricated charges being disproved, and our son has been hired as a assistant pastor/ bus driver to help intercity kids know Jesus,[1000+ weekly] as a position became available from a pastors infidelity, and the spirit then moved again in the church!; His lifes ambition!G-d.[Our son loves helping kids , and gave all his money to start this project when he was wealthy]G-d has fulfilled half of my vision, and the rest is near. Praise to the almighty Yehoshua; King of Kings; The Son of the Living G-d of Israel. Thanks for your prayers! Love in Christ.G-d will never fail us ; don't ever give up that He wouln't!

We recently watched a good dvd titled HEART AND SOULS and the girls and I liked it. We are planning a trip to soon and ask for prayer for travel mercies and we'll be bringing another person with us. Mothers happy, oldest daughter has met a nice Christian boy of her faith at Christian University and it looks as though life is getting more serious, and Mommas very happy. It was worth selling and giving away most all our possessions inorder to get her to a Christian University and what can we say but THANK YOU to those who helped us get here. Aubrey has a thank you for the church when we arrive next month.
I used my tax money to buy oldest daughter a 1989 Mercury Cougar. I was shocked when the kids told me it was a FORD. Since for months while looking I have passed over every nice Ford because they support GAY/LESBIAN EVENTS. The kids got a good laugh at my expense. Seriously though there was no Ford emblem on the car so I didnt know. She loves it.
Doing great. Home schooling. Family dog won a major award at a dog show and family is studying dog training techniques and says youngest member in family wants to be a vet.
Riley dog and Sweetie cat are great. We love our pets!
I purchased DVD from American Family Association titled, ITS NOT GAY. I have sent it to various places with a note stating this DVD is given in the name of THE CARPENTER FAMILY whose story can be read at
WWW.HOPE7.HIGHPOWERSITES.COM and may God bless every person who watches it. Here is my review on this video below. God bless you all,
PS My birth name is OLDHAM....I tell myself its after one of Noahs sons...Ham. I took my adopted fathers name NORMAN in school and my married name I still carry....the truth is none of these names are truely mine because Jesus holds that name in his hand and will give it to me someday!
