Support the Survivor - Help Her Restore

On March 11th, a courageous young woman stood before her accuser and the court and detailed how years of spiritual, physical, and sexual abuse from a trusted mentor had robbed her of so much of her life. We want to help her recover and provide the safe landing that so many institutions promised yet failed to deliver.

"Father" (as he has yet to be defrocked) David Morrier pled guilty to sexual battery of this survivor.

During the years since, her abuser has had his every need cared for by the TORs: shelter, food, clothing, companionship, while she was abandoned.

In her victim impact statement she said, “On a very basic level, I will carry the financial impact of these crimes with me for the rest of my life. I finished at Franciscan University at the end of my senior year with an estimated $80,000 in loan debt. I accumulated almost $300,000 of additional loan debt during my last six years at the university finishing a graduate degree I did not choose, having to drop out of classes in each semester because of the abuse I was experiencing, and because I was forced into an inescapable total dependency on the school for a place to live, food to eat and basic survival.”

Consider donating to help this young woman move on with her life, as she has an incredible amount of expenses directly related to her abuse. We have the opportunity to be the community she did not have, and we want to make sure she is free to move on without financial burden.

Thank you so much.
