My prayers are with you, with her and her daughter, and with the soldiers of the law.

They are also with her boyfriend, that like Saul on the road to Damascus he may see the true Light and repent.

Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison, Kyrie eleison.

Well, she lied and covered up the abuse, then when the police left, he threw her through a door. However, our mutual friends are seeing the severity that I have ALWAYS seen, so they're starting to apply pressure on her to change. She and I had a really, really long phone call where I think we made some massive headway in fixing her life.

She doesn't want to leave him. But she doesn't want beat. She doesn't want her children to see this. Or her daughter to grow up saying "Daddy hit mommy, so it's ok with my boyfriend hits me." She also wants me to stay with her and not turn my back on her, but I told her that requires her to stand up and be an adult and a proper, defensive mother.

I am thankful that, although your friend may not have sufficient self-esteem to believe that she deserves better, at least for the sake of her children she might leave this situation. Plus that she has another friend who has now become aware of the severity.

Keep praying for dynamis!

Yes, thank you, more and more people are beginning to step forward to help. The police are getting involved again. They said it usually takes 7 times for them to show up before the victim in this situation gets away.
