COVID & Our Teens Mistreatment Woke Us Up | DEAR ALISSA: Ex-Jehovah's Witness Anonymous Letter

Today I share our first anonymous letter. Born and raised in the organization, this woman and her family began to question everything after elders mistreated their 15 year old pregnant daughter. From mischaracterizing her repentance to publicly singling her out, they tried to hold on by telling themselves they were serving Jehovah, not men. But when COVID arrived, those questions intensified as the level of control and overreach from the Governing Body became impossible to ignore. To the woman who trusted me with her story, thank you for your bravery and vulnerability. Please show her and her family your love and support in the comments. _____________________________________________________ If you have a story to tell, reach out to me: https://forms.gle/bLzaA1c3Hqw7ikQ26 If you have a question, leave me a message: https://www.askalissa.com My mission is to create a safe space where women feel empowered to use their voices and share their stories because I truly believe your experiences can inspire and help others. Thank you so much for the support, and I’ll see you in the next video! With love, Alissa
