Your Voice Will Be Heard
Thank you for considering donating to support the efforts in providing a place for survivors to share their stories of spiritual and sexual abuse at the hands of Chi Alpha ministries (XA) and the Assemblies of God.
The response has been overwhelming, and therefore so have the costs. Your contribution will help us cover the website's forum costs and operational fees. But, most importantly, it will help us create a safe and empowering space for survivors to come forward and seek healing and justice. Everyone deserves to have their voice heard!
