Dear Friends,

There’s a lot happening at The Hope of Survivors this quarter as we prepare for the Clergy Sexual Abuse Awareness & Prevention Campaign beginning August 1. I want to keep my letter brief this time and just share with you these few highlights and needs:

(1) Recently I compiled a few statistics for some information on The Hope of Survivors that will be included in a new book coming out soon. Guess what? Since we started in 2002, The Hope of Survivors has directly served victims of clergy sexual abuse in 50 states in the USA, as well as 39 different countries (plus multiple provinces within Canada). Glory to God for what He has done! See what your prayers and support have enabled us to accomplish on behalf of victims worldwide? Thank you!

(2) We have a victim of clergy sexual abuse who needs a scholarship of $1,500 to cover travel expenses to attend our Hope & Healing Conference in KY. This couple will be traveling a great distance to be there. As of today, we have roughly $590 available to help her so far. Would you please prayerfully consider helping us cover her expenses for this much-needed healing opportunity? You can donate online, or mail a check to: The Hope of Survivors, 843 Broadway, Sonoma, CA 95476. Thank you.

(3) The Hope & Healing Conference registration deadline is coming up soon (July 31)! Register now to attend! You will be greatly blessed as you learn truth, regain hope, fellowship with other survivors and continue to heal.

Until next time, may the Lord cause His face to shine upon you and be merciful unto you!

God bless you,
Samantha Nelson
