  1. My sister and two children who followed went through similar experiences. All attended twig with mom. I moved out of my house in with grandma at 16 (stepfather abuse). He was a non attendee. Went through the motions from 80-84 then stopped altogether. My sisters (the 5yo in OP) husband wasnt allowed to marry her without taking "the class". They were 18 and had been attending fellowship their whole dating period. They immediately joined military and eventually moved away. Attended fellowships here and there but didbtvremain active.
  2. The reason it was horrible is because I was an adolescent who was forced. Forced to utter tongues among adults and peers my age. All publicly. Forced into a "performance". There's no current disbelief in the power of tongues I just don't believe the method of coercion was suitable for adolescents and should come naturally and bit by coercion of any means. You may have been an adult and this may have come naturally but got adolescents it was inappropriate. Judgement and condemnation for not uttering immediately ensued.
  3. Hi my mom joined TWI in 78, she Went WOW as single mom in 79 with me aged 7 and my baby sis aged 5. Albert Lea, MN. '80 returned home to NewIberia LA By the time I was 13 i was forced to take PFAL. Forced to SIT out loud in front of many. (terrible experience). That experience alone ruined me for the whole TWI but it was the only religion I knew. Im 45 now happily attending a non denom evangelical type church. My mom is still a fully functioning member of TWI and honestly she's an extremist on many issues. Ive spent the past 25 years trying to figure out what's crap and what's truth. This ministry really has a grip on my mom. But she seems happy just very self righteous snd honestly drives people away rather than drawing them in. Id livevto reminisce with anyone who also was WOW Ambassador in Albert Lea, MN in 1979. I'm 45 but was 7/8 then so if you were an adult I'd imagine you would be 60+ yrs old by now. Like my mom. She was 28 at the time I believe. Her name was Paula LeBlanc Lambert. Mine is Tessie
