Re: Adawehi & Jackie Woods

I was once a member here. If you have family here- do not give up on them. It is very difficult to leave as they believe their soul will die if they leave. The brainwashing is so intense. The point of most of the exercises is to re-trigger past traumas. These past traumas are used to control members. Separating parents from children is also a main method of control. Along with using traumas to control, with the required tithing, onsite grocery store, multiple required 'sessions', and events all of your money goes to the founder. Many of the members work for the founders husband's business and so if they left they would not have jobs. It is difficult to leave when you have no savings and you have been made to cut yourself off from anyone outside the community.

The only good news is that even though they try very hard to recruit new members, they have been unsuccessful. The community has become so shut off from the world, that most people who still have their own thought process understand that something is off and still have enough freewill to choose to not be there. If your family member is there, make sure they know that you are there for them always. Also know, that if you directly disapprove you will be shut out. If they have hurt you, please know- it comes from a brainwashed state. Even if your family member were to have a thought against the norm here, if it is found out by anyone else- your family member will be reported on and have consequences for that.

I am grateful to be out and hope that others will find support if they choose to leave.
