After she came away with mental illness, there was very little sympathy for her from LC members but instead she still received a lot criticism and blaming. The training pretty much ruined her life. It's a good thing you didn't go if you were pressured to do so.

When I read this I knew immediately that I needed to pray for this sister of yours. I hope we all pray for her healing from the influence of the LC. Don't get me wrong. I don't pray routinely. But I just had a sense of urgency for this sister and for God's mercy.
