To Richard Long:

Thank you for being a wonderful friend.  I have no regrets, only hope, faith, and love.  When all secret things are revealed, I believe our fellowship together will be restored.  Take care.  David.

To:  Wendy Addison

Hello aunty Wendy.  I think of you often and honestly feel very sorry for you.  You lost your closest sister and friend, your brother and parents.  I know your life of turmoil does grieve you within, and I pray that you will find strength and overcome fear.  I have sincerely admired you for who you really are, even though you could never be that person.  With all my love and regards, David.

Anna-Maria,  Onelia,  Aurelio,  Orlando.

     One day you will find the truth and realise we do love you.

Mum and Dad.

To David and Julie S, in AALC, Woodcroft

I think of you often, and hope you are well

Despite what has happened I will always love you.

You are simply my big brother.

One day maybe we will meet up.

Love always, Maxine

to my little sis,

Lost the best friend I ever ever had.

Miss you with all my heart and soul. 

Memories are there but will never replace you.  I'll always be here for you.  Be happy little sis.

love you always, Sarah

There are so many people that I want to give my love to in the GRC I honestly don't know where to begin.
So many.
Carmello. I loved you as my brother and friend ,I still do,I have good memories of working together with you in Melbourne.We laughed alot together and had alot of fun.I pray that we'll see each other again one day.

Steve L. You were a great friend and brother to me.I hope your wife and family are all ok.
Daryl and Andrew L in Perth.My memories of you are only good.I miss you both.
Diedre and Steve Sq: I have often thought about you over the years.

Nat and Jo :I love you Nat. It was great hanging around with you when you were first saved.You were a breath of fresh air. Jo, you were honest, it's so sad to hear of the struggles you've had.

Frank G and wife: It was a joy to be in your company
Milan: I hope you are ok. It was such a blessing when you got saved.
James Di: The best man at my wedding! How could I forget you?
Maurie and Lily S: Maurie, I was surprised by the way you spoke to us in manila in Jan. 1987, but you were a father to me and I valued and needed your fatherly counsel. You helped me alot.
Lily, I respected you and loved you as a mother.

Martin D:I have great memories of you.
I'm afraid I'll have to stop now 'cause I could just go on and on and on.
So many.

Finally, I want to say how much I loved the following people but will have to wait until the ressurrection till I see them again.

Gordon McDonald, Jack Vicary, Helen Kavay, and Mama (Margarita's mum). They are my brothers and sisters in Christ and I know we're going to be joyfully reunited on that great day,

And last of all my own mother, who bought me up to believe in Christ. I got saved because of her testimony and inluence. No one had a greater influence on me for good than she did. She had many trials and heartbreaks in her life but I know she loved me and did the best she could. I honor and love her for the way she looked after me and raised me. I know that in her heart she still loved me but she could not say or show it. I never had the chance to tell her how much I loved her before she died, I wish I could have, but one day I'll see her again and I'll be able to tell her then.

And I also remember my Nanna. Before she died I was able to see her one last time in the nursing home she was in, and I told her that we we were going to see each other again on that great day and that there would be no barriers between us then. She said " I hope so". She died not long after.

To Luke Petrovikes- Miss you bro, we were best mates for years, was a great blessing to see you and your wife in town with your  new born child, I long for the day when maybe we can talk  again freely with out the fear of man..

to H.weggalar, Andrew layton, miss you two soooooooooooooooo much!!! we had some wonderful times together. Andy got your self a women yet? hehe.


Nathan, my dear brother in the fleash-If anyone i miss the most, its you.

Love you all, kind reagards

                                                W.F.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to write but after this long I guess one of us has to say something.

(Hobart)

To Dad, wish you would call, my mobile number hasn't changed and I miss you

To Davina, hear you are married, congrats wish I could have been there.

To Anthony, hear you got married also and that she is lovely (So Nan & Pop tell me) Congrats to you too

To Rory and Trav, still at home, hopefully something good will come of that soon.

To Mum, hope the house isn't too empty with only the two boys there.

To Lindsay & Denise, miss you both and hope that one day you will see the way to embrace old friends

(Launceston)

Nic & Kev, congrats on the two bubs, hope you are both happy, miss you both and all my love to you and yours

All my love to you all and hope that you all will find a way in your hearts to love me for who I am again.

Me

To L & K,

Thank you for accepting me and never judging me.  For being honest and real with me as I was with you.  You are both very dear to my heart

and time and circumstance will never take away what you both meant to me.

I have good memories of Joe and Sylvine when they came over to the Philippines. We truly enjoyed your fellowship. You were such a blessing to us. I fondly recall Joe trapping a really bbbbiiiiiggggg rat! And Sylvine cooking an Aussie meal for us! You are welcome to stay with us when you visit the Philippines again (hopefully someday soon). Bisa and Winnie are well, so is my nephew Abishai. He is now six years old and has grown big. He is in grade one and enjoys computer games. He is quite handsome too! To Lolo Joe and Lola Sylvine, you are still very dear and special to us!fficeffice" / onload='javascript:showImageWidth(this,600,600)' class='AutoImageWidthTopic' style='cursor:poionter'>

To Jeff and Cathy of Tasmania. Kumusta na kayo? You both were a real blessing. We enjoyed your visit and your emails. We hope to see you again someday. Our love to you both and your children.

To the Maurers, especially Liz. I enjoyed the fellowship over a cup of chocolate drink at camp!

To Christine. Thank you for the letters. Remember one activity during Youngies in Manila and you hit that bottle of coke? You were thrilled then! We were especially thrilled when you received the Holy Spirit after your visit.  How are your folks? Our best regards to your family. PS: I presume you are married now? 

To all the saints who visited the Philippines, thank you for coming over and we hope to see you again someday. Meanwhile, kumusta sa inyong lahat!

Although I am not sending any greetings, I am enjoying reading them.and how much it means to have friends.   It has reminded me of a quotation I read on the wall of the Salvation Army Hall in Melton some years ago in relation to friends and Gold, Silver and Bronze.  It goes like this--------

            SOME FRIENDS ARE AS PRECIOUS AS  GOLD

             SOME FRIENDS ARE LIKE  SILVER

               AND ITS GOOD TO HAVE SOME FRIENDS

                 WHO ARE  COPPERS   !!!!!! 

   always tell the truth

        motmot

To  Patrick Brownell

Wherever you are and whatever you're doing,  I hope you are O.K.. I pray that one day we will meet again.

Regards, David Erwin.

To Mr. Ken Johnson.

I often think of you.  I only ever knew you as a genuine and sincere person.  I understand why you had to do what you did to me in Market Square.  You are not afraid of me, but Mr. Hollins.  I want you to know that I understand your situation, and I do forgive you.  What is happening within the GRC does grieve many who are genuine and sincere people.  But...the curse causeless will not come.  (Prov. 26:2).   Be true to yourself and you will find the strength to overcome ALL fear.

Regards, David.

Reply to : pilinutReply to : AnonymousHas anyone been contacted as a result of this topic?Who are you and why do you want to know? If anyone has contacted you you'll know about it and if you happen to be a GRC leader your reason for knowing would be to discipline that person. So that's for me to know and for you not to find out.

To mum and dad,

Its ok that you go to the Bellarine Assembly where the British Israel message is taught - I wont make that public because I don't have a personal issue with their pastor.  I claim to be warring against abusive church practices, but it's one man that I cannot look past and must lower myself to get justice.

To my mother in law - Its common knowledge that I treated you like dirt until I left and then I befriended you to get a  sobby newspaper article written about you.

To my poor kids - You are the victims here.

I have lost my agenda once again.

Love from,

Beam in the eye xx

PS Hell aint a bad place to be - Bon Scott

To Mr Ken Johnston,

You probably didn't want to talk to me because I am a freak and you were frightened of getting your eye poked out by my nose

The recent two posts identify the same deceit that existed in the hearts of Eli's sons.  If only Eli had not been partial, would his children have become the sons of Belial?

To those ex-members who use this forum to vent their pain resulting from the grief and trauma experienced whilst a member of the Geelong Revival Centre Pty Ltd, I sincerely apologise that you are still exposed (even here) to the fruits of those who refuse the truth about the organisation.  The GRC Pty Ltd is without doubt a religious cult, and the behavior of many of its members displays their cultish traits.  Our need for recovery and some times even exit counseling, also testifies to the psychological entrapment and mind control methods that are used in this organisation.  I would like to encourage all ex-members to be strong in mind and soft in heart toward God, and continue to support one another.  While our new found freedom is a life of beginnings, their prison life is a sorrowful end.

To Czuba and Carolyn.

I think of you guy's from time to time.   You were always a nice couple to me and your fellowship was very much appreciated by my wife during that last dreadful camp she attended with our children.  I hope you are both doing o.k.  It's people like you I miss the most.

Regards, David.

Hello to Mark and Cathy Duerloo. How are you? I still have my photo with you when we went to Laguna. I remember you had to cut your trip because Mark got sick. Hope you are both well, and hope you can visit us again someday -- and stay longer.

To Tanya. Hello! Still have the photo you sent on your wedding day. Jasmin and Jackee are well.

Best regards and God bless.

To Dick and Tic:  Thank you both for your kindness and your genuine friendship.  Dick, I admired your integrity. 

Please Tic, forgive your dad.   You know 'deep down' it was Mr. Hollins who threw him on the scrap heap.  (While there is time, there is hope.)

With my best regards, David.

gday to all the other goiters they know who they are. we enjoyed many hours of  legal fun as well as illeagel assembly fun . hope you and your famlies are doing well. i miss your friendship even though members were not supposed to have special friends.i left because i couldnt be a hypocrite any more i couldnt be the man the man wanted me to be so i became my own man  and it feels much better.      regards goiter

A duel is requested

Now Sir, sir, I challenge you to a spiritual duel - If healing does not exist in the GRC yet you are a superior entity - in the name of Smith Wigglesworth XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Then only then will I listen to you and brand you the neurotic messiah and will humbly ask you if I can XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX you have to offer.

And sir, one last thing - some GRC members do look at this website with the same morbid curiosity that makes the traffic slow down when there is an accident.

To your counterpart in the Phillipines, I challenge him to denounce his ministry (joke) for one month and work for his bread and tithe a voluntary portion - just to experience what it feels like to be in our boots.

To his wife - I challenge her XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

Best regards,

Eli's Son

Personal insults of the kind I have deleted in this post will not be tolerated.  Have your say without resorting to childish name calling and insults.  You have been warned!!!

I have nothing to prove, especially to a gutless 'sneak'.  Most people in the assembly say you are a Sleaze.  Even female ex-members, who you constantly harass with your sleazy phone calls, say the same things about you.

My bucked jaw and big nose are the only two things I inherited from the Addison blood line.  You've reminded me just how much I have to praise the Lord for.  Hallelujah!

To Graham and Kathy.

I hope both of you, and B. and E. are going well.  Please keep an open heart and an open mind.  Don't block the Truth out.

Regards, David.

To Travis & Kirsty.

I know you've got your eyes open and are watching your back constantly.  It's sad to have to live like that (as so many do in the GRC), but I'm sure you guys will be ok.  All the best.

Regards, David.

I have no idea if any of my friends from GRC still attend.

to the P family based in Lara , myself and my mother mis your company alot and I used to love going to work with Frank , I hope you guys are well.

and several other familes that we loved to spend time with we miss greatly , I'd love to mention names but fell i shouldnt at this time.

Brad G from Albury , you left not long after i did and I miss you heaps buddy , its a shame we never caught up after we both went our seperate ways.

the list is endless really but i wish everyone the best and hope you are all well.

      this post shows  that there is a lot of emotions derived /created by the workings/methods or manipultions  of GRC hierarchy who obviously have effected many many peoples lives to the point of tearing apart families.    NO ONE SHOULD EVER HAVE POWER OVER ANOTHER. Just look at the political scene around the world and the tragities it has caused. Noel Hollins , like all of us, truely ment well , but Noel, you truely have stuffed up big time and like every one else, you will be judged for it.

let us pray.......

            and pray hard

TO,   KATIE AND DANIEL .       I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH AND MISS YOU DEEPLY IN ALL THESE YEARS I HAVE NEVER STOPPED THINKING ABOUT YOU. WILL LOVE YOU ALLWAYS  ..... LOVE DAD

.                                                                                                               

To Lindsy and Denise.  I hope you guys are doing fine.  Because of where you live, you would only know what you are being told by GRC.  Remember there is always more to propaganda than a one sided story.  With my story (as in your family's current situation), the members only hear what is convenient for Mr. Hollins.  I hope we get a chance to catch up again in the future.  Although, I assume this wont happen until the Leader repents (or passes away).

Take care.  All the best.  Regards, David.

To:   Steve Djh.

I think of the word 'juggling' when I consider what it is like to live the life of bondage in the GRC.  I've only ever know you to always be friendly and polite.  It's your true personality.  I understand it's very hard to 'juggle' and look over your shoulder at the same time.  Take care.

Regards, David.

TO MY BELOVED NANCY & RICHARD LONG:

..........No...................I havent forgotten you both............you have this permanent place in my HEART .............I kept your letters for years.............I have three kids now since my marriage......they're all lovely gifts from " OUR GOD !"........

Because of my memory of your 'sweet friendship', i pray fervently for all members of the GRC...... I'm still here.......

LOVE & KISES.......FRANCES TAGAMOLILA SORIANO
