Hannahs Faith Home

From Hannahs Faith home to yours…

If you are an adult in a relationship, home should be and feel safe; home should feel cozy; home should be an extension of you; when your heart hurts, home should be your place of peace; home should be your place of rest.

If you are an adult with children, we know you are exhausted (exhaustion appears suddenly when you hear that newborn cry)--it is temporary. Your child will go through many stages. As difficult as it is when you’re trying to handle everything at once, be patient. These little ones only have their world they see and it is THEIR JOB TO PLAY – it’s how they learn.

Take time to teach. Even when you are busy, use those moments to answer your little one in the way you want them to talk to you. Too many parents disregard the importance of speaking to their children respectfully then get angry when the child returns the disrespectful behavior. Remember…it takes consistency and time.

Your child will watch your reaction to anger and will respond in similar ways. Your little one is watching when you don’t think they are; they hear when you don’t think they can; they do what they see. Show them that anger should and can be handled where people aren’t attacked, hurt, or called names. Screaming, yelling, hitting, kicking, spitting, stomping accomplishes nothing other than placing you in a position of vulnerability i.e.to be the Defendant in an abuse or murder trial or the victim of a violent act that may take your life or the life of your child.

LITTLE ONES KNOW HOW TO ACT BY WHAT THEY SEE YOU DO
NOT what they are TOLD to do!

RELATIONSHIP ABUSE: Abuse towards adults, specifically in relationship settings (whether heterosexual or homosexual), has become commonplace. Unless the crime is especially heinous, the emphasis on the value of life seems somewhat less than important. IT IS IMPORTANT! Violence between people that say they ‘care’ about the other has grown to epidemic proportions. Did you know that violence against children is one mode of revenge against the child’s parent? How tragic that one would use a fragile, unique life as a tool of manipulation. Choose your partner wisely. Set up boundaries for ALL individuals impacted by the relationship.

If you feel you are alone in this world, you are not – someone knows your name, someone’s life has been impacted by something you have said and/or done. The value and fragility of life is not limited to little ones – we were all “little ones” at one time. Each individual is someone’s Granddaughter, Grandson, Mother, Father, Daughter, Son, Sister, Brother, Cousin, Friend, Neighbor, Acquaintance, Co-Worker. If you believe you have nothing to offer, chances are you will never offer anything. Believe in yourself and in others. Give others a chance to find out what a great person you are!

CHILDREN: .Hannah’s Faith believes each child (regardless of age) was created for a purpose. For the victims of abuse, abduction, and/or negligence, the purpose for their lives having been snatched away (of another’s doing), we feel gives these little ones a calling and purpose of another road. That ‘road’, we feel, is to be an inspiration and guide; to leave a history we can learn from and improve upon; to remind us daily of the fragility of life. Fatality or survivor, abuse changes a life forever. We do ask that if you have been in a relationship with a child murder victim, please send us a story about the little one you knew before the world knew their name. This gives the child life BEFORE the tragedy. People learn from real-life experiences of others. If you have been a victim of abuse, please send us your story. You will remain anonymous unless otherwise indicated.

These little ones remind us that when we say "Good Bye" to our children (regardless of age), make it a "Good Bye" that will count - there is no guarantee of tomorrow; they remind us to hug our little ones for a couple seconds longer; they remind us to kiss our little ones, not just once, but maybe two or three times; they remind us that little ones are little today, but they are the men and women of tomorrow and our role in their lives is of ultimate importance; they remind us to hug gently, say, "I love you" a lot, give butterfly kisses as often as possible, tell our little ones how important and beautiful they are to us. Most importantly, they remind us that little lives, regardless of age, are valuable and precious; a unique being fearfully and wonderfully made. Please… remember, your reaction to a child, can change that child’s entire life (regardless of your relationship). Be gentle.

STATEMENT: Hannah’s Faith will offer you every avenue of information made available to us regarding all subjects within the criteria. We do ask that if you have been a victim (child abuse, domestic abuse, same sex abuse), please send us your story. You will remain anonymous unless otherwise requested. People learn from real-life experiences of others.

Hannah's Faith will be a clearinghouse/warehouse of information. It will encompass child-abuse (which has just been launched as P.E.A.C.E©. "Prevention, Education, Awareness of Child Endangerment"), child fatality with inclusion of death-to-conviction documents, legal documents, etc. (as a part of child and domestic abuse consequences), gay/lesbian same sex abuse (G.L.O.S.S.A.© "Gays and Lesbians Opposing Same Sex Abuse"), and domestic violence (not yet launched). The long-term goal is to have a comprehensive site beginning with the 'simplest' forms of information for the individual needing assistance as well as for 'professional' forms of information for the professional needing information/research. Individual states can be clicked-on where an individual can find any organization (from non-profit to public) that can/will help with their particular need and with a click of the mouse, they are on that organization's website.

Thank you for visiting.
Materials are here for your personal use to prevent, educate, bring awareness. and save lives.
Please use...
Please do not allow your little ones to visit this site -- their lives should be innocent and care-free, playing and learning... and most importantly, loved.

Abuse is NOT gender, age, ethnic, cultural, economic, sexual orientation, or religious specific.

Whether it be physical brutality, sexual violation, verbal humiliation, emotional deflation, or intimidation by threat, the abuser has discarded the innate instinct to love, protect, and respect. The abused is used by the abuser to increase his/her self-serving desire to feel powerful and in control. The abuser will generally choose to wage war on the physically weaker.

Intentional war waged on another individual to enhance one’s feeling of power is ABUSE.

IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE!
Watch the videos and see the consequences of slow-death by abuse.

The abused is, for the most part,

~~Slowly led in to a position of alienation with regard to the outside world, friends, family;
~~Has extreme feelings of loneliness;
~~Feels caged;
~~Fears any movement will be justification for a barrage of abuse;
~~May have been convinced (as a result of the abuse) that it is their fault or they deserve the abuse

Knowledge is power

The world meets no one halfway!
