• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I was given my summons for eviction today, have 5 days to respond. I already viewed the case file and pulled the law library information for the case, and I have a draft of an answer to the case. If all goes well, I'm confident that I can win this case. Please pray for:

1. Clarity for me, so that I can find my copies of all of the eviction notices that my dad has given my over the years. I saved them, but in all of the shuffling of papers over the years, I'm not sure where they are. Finding them would strengthen my case. I hope I wasn't stupid enough to throw them all away.

2. Wisdom for the legal aid society that is going to help me tomorrow, to improve my draft answer to the summons. Please pray that I can get an attorney to help me with the case.

3. And of course, pray for victory. A father should not be evicting his daughter from somewhere when she's struggling, and especially not before unbelievers.

Thanks!

I pray your Father will be convicted by God to be a good parent, a loving father, a born-again Christian. Or at the very least , be constrained by the Holy Spirit so that God's mercy is made known to all.

Thanks for the prayers everyone!

I have filed an answer to the lawsuit yesterday, and I was able to find some of the eviction notices. Please keep me in prayer as I look for an attorney.

Meanwhile, my dad has threatened to sell the property out from under me and my brother if I win. Please pray for wisdom for my mom, my brother, and me as we try to contain this ongoing situation and restrain a mentally ill man who really needs to go see a therapist.

Trial date has been set for January 11, 2024. Please pray for:

1. That my case may be heard, and the counsel for the defense (me) would be able to present all evidence and points related to the case before the judge.

2. That the Lord would bless my efforts to move out of this property as soon as possible.

Thanks!

I did get the chance to present all the details of my case at trial and call my mother as witness to the facts. The judge is going to look into the case law and legal questions that have been raised at trial and mail a written judgment to both me and my dad.

Please continue to keep the situation in prayer as the judge reviews the case.
