Please visit Le Chrysalis Remembers and go through the pages of those that should be remembered and not forgotten.  If you are moved to do so, please leave a comment or a prayer for the family of the loved one that has been brutally taken away from them.

For those of us that have lost loved ones to Violence and Domestic Violence, we know how important it is not to forget them, to get their stories out, and to hopefully prevent the tragedy from happening to someone else.  Too many families have been torn apart into chaos by violent tragedy, please help to support those that we list here.

Domestic Violence is a Family Matter/Issue…is it Really?

This morning, I woke up to my Father watching the news about a man that was in a van and may be dead following a police chase, stand off, explosions, and failed negotiations. 

On the news, I’ve heard it mentioned several times that the suspect, if indeed James Boulware, has a history of domestic violence.  I heard also that he was upset because the state took away his child from him.

Of course, at this time no-one has much information, but the fact that domestic violence was prevalent in this man with a troubled past and even more troubling ending, wasn’t surprising.  It truly brought to mind the fact that so many still stand by their thinking that “Domestic Violence is a family problem”… is it really?

As many of us already know…change of mind set is needed, and Domestic Violence needs to be seen for what it really is… a Social Issue that needs to be taken more seriously and where much more work and support is needed.

Stay Safe!

Dallas Police Headquarters Shooting

Before he was shot, the suspect ranted to police by phone, giving his name and alleging police were responsible for his child having been taken from him, but investigators haven't confirmed his identity, Brown said.

After a gunfire exchange, police called the man for negotiations. The suspect in the vehicle gave police the name James Boulware. Police said that they couldn't immediately confirm that it is the suspect's real identity.

Police found a previous record of domestic violence by a man under that name.

New Post on Le Chrysalis Christian Center

I started this about oh…two weeks ago?  Sigh…unfortunately life got in the way and this was thought of of course when I couldn’t finish it…so finally have the chance to do so!!  I still feel this is worth sharing and worth telling, and feel that maybe the wait was needed because now I have more to share then I would have the night I was writing this…

Riding home from a school concert tonight K-Love caught my attention with something they were talking about…Kelly was talking about how we too quickly let people into our hearts, mostly those of us who happen to be single and looking for someone to fill that void.

How even when we aren’t looking for a boyfriend, but when talking about friends, how we too quickly let people into our inner circles, into our hearts.

How true this is!!! 

Kelly then shared a conversation between a Mother and a daughter that was applicable to this, and really brought this issue into perspective…I want to share this here because this really is something we could all use in our lives!:
