Free Hugs to Advertise Jesus

By Nala (General member), Iceland

“This is just what I needed! You just saved [...]

Sushant Lyall Speaks Out

From Sushant Lyall, 22, India.
(Second-generation member of the Family International.)
It’s difficult to understand the reasoning behind such a cold and cruel murder. I find it unbelievable that someone who had once been an active Christian and missionary could have even meditated such evil. Of course, there’s no saying that people will never change, I’ve seen [...]

No Small Coincidence

By Daniel Fernandez, 18, Romania
New member of the Family International
In The Meantime…
Clearer to me the meaning becomes
Why the life I live is folly to some
I give my credence to things unseen
Contrary to the consensus of human beings
Who dominate this earth with principles that are
Causing men’s hopes and dreams to seem afar
Now hopes of seeing [...]
