Proverbs 3:5: Trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.

 Why are you and I here?

As a child I simply could not understand why there was not a church equipped or a support group available for my family. Through a child’s eye you view problems simply, such as… Why can we not talk to our priest?... Why is no one able to help us? Another question was…Why is there no one to extend themselves to help us?

One Man's Testimony

Two days after Christmas in 1991, I sat my wife down and told her about my life long struggle. I explained to her that I cross-dressed in secret ever since I was seven years old. I confessed this to her because it was taking control of my life.
