Please pray for Brian Nicholson and Sara Sterling who are fighting for the return of their daughter against the unwarranted and despicable practices of CPS.

Jamie and Jacob, we love you and miss you. We have never stopped fighting so please don’t give up.

Comment by Joyce Elifritz — February 2, 2008 @ 10:06 am

God, please help me to find a way to reunite with our babies. I was the victim for years and now they have my children. Because I was an actual victim of sexual abuse by my father (who still has custody of his children from his second divorce), they have demonized me, my mother and everyone else these sweet children love. Jamie and Jacob, I love you with every ounce of my soul. Please God, let them hear me.

Please pray for my sister who will be going to court in the next week. She had her 2 children taken away from her due to an anonymous phone call. She is really hurt and suffering with out them. Please pray that her children will be given back to her. She is one of the good mothers out there. Thanks in advance.

Please pray for Jaycob to be reunited with his maternal Grandparents and his Brother Hayden. Their Mom was murdered by Jaycobs Dad (he was given custody by social services enen though he had a violent background) because she was trying to defend him from his Dad’s abuse. Jayks’ paternal Grandmother is trying to get full custody of him thus splitting the two loving Half brothers apart. Please pray that an equal and fair agreement can be reached “in the best interest of the children” and not the selfish and spiteful wants of his paternal Grandmother. Thank You in advance. Their MoM’s name was Jen and a wonderful person, friend, and Mom to have. MISS YOU GIRLIE!!!!!

Please pray for me. I go to court Feb.5,2008. I am 24 years old and my two lovely boys have been taken away from me. They are 2 and 1. They were taken because my 1 years old fell and fractured his’ femur bone but dfcs is trying to say different. There are false allegations that my son has been abused which is not true. They are up to date on all there medical shots and everything. Please pray that Iget my kids back. I am 5 months pregnant and this is really stressing me out. I asked to take a polygraph test several times and I just got one last week but htey said I failed it. I was being asked trick questions!! I would never hurt my babies. They are all I got except GOD himself. I’m believing and trusting in God to bring me and my family back together. I am there mother and father to them. I miss my kids so much!

Comment by Tanita Collins — February 4, 2008 @ 7:31 am

Please pray for our family. My daughter got a call @ work from her child caregiver and said her baby 14 mo was unresponsive. As my daughter left work she called 911 and ask ambulance to meet her @ babysitter’s. My granddaughter had a subdural hematoma but also had retina hemmoraging which indicates the shaking baby syndrome. They have taken my daughter’s and son in law children out of the home. They are with my oldest son and his wife which we are thankful for, but we know my daughter did no such thing . Please pray that my daughter get’s her baby’s back soon.

my boyfriend has been falsely accused of sexual assault and other crazy charges against a minor under 14 - who is now 17 or 18. He has been best friends w/ the accusers father and helped raise this girl, he considers her family and would never hurt her or anyone else. He is in custody awaiting court and we need help. The system is not right when it comes to these types of charges they said even if she drops them they will still proceed with a trial. We need help God and your guidance to help set an innocent man free. He is the most loving, gentle, caring man I know and we plan to spend the rest of our lives together- having finally found each other and we are a happy family. Please pray that he is released and found innocent. Thank you so much and God Bless all.

Comment by Michelle — February 5, 2008 @ 8:42 am

I am going back to court on 2/15 so please pray for me. CPS has both my kids which is totally unwarranted and they have made despicable accusations about me. This whole thing has ripped my life to shreds and I just hope that truth prevails and my kids will be returned to me where they belong. God Bless all who are going through similar situations.

Comment by Sandy Granger — February 5, 2008 @ 2:21 pm

Please pray for us - we desperately need your prayers. My husband and I just had our 4 children taken into protective custody. We had a hearing yesterday and it has been continued to Wednesday of next week. We are scared and miss our children horribly. We have been falsely accused of physical abuse and we’ve been told there is a criminal investigation against us as well. We are overwhelmed and need any prayers we can. I’ve heard horrible things about CPS for many years, but did not realize how much damage they cause to families until now. Thank you so much for your prayers. I will read your requests and pray for you too. God bless you and keep you and your families safe.

Comment by Michele — February 5, 2008 @ 4:58 pm

Pplease pray for me and my fiance’,Randy Prouty.
He is accused of sexual abuse to my 10 yr old daughter.
He is innocent, my daughter was coached to say these things because my family does not care for my fiance’
Please Please all I can do now is pray he is not charged for something he did not do they have removed my child from our home

Comment by Donna Stanley — February 5, 2008 @ 5:23 pm

Please pray for Perry Dunlop and his family. He exemplifies what this whole fight with Child Protective Services is all about. As a police officer in Cornwall Ontario he came accross a homosexual peodophile file ring working within the system. It involved prominent people of that community. They consisted of Doctors, Lawyers, Priests, Probation Officers and other prominent people that were all involved in the ring. As he tried to bring these people to Justice his career was destroyed and his family terrorized. His teenage daughters have received death threats and the commision that is underway appears to be nothing more than a white washing of the whole scandle. Please follow this story and pass it on as it is not receiving the media attention that it deserves and the government perpetrators are free and the whistle blowers are being thrown in jail.

I am a christian mom I have a christian husband but we are separated due to uncontrollable circumstances I got a cps referal and am now being harrassed. I did not know that I did not have to let them in and I also submitted to a very degrading ramdom urinalysis (clean of course) observed and we don’t know how far this can go. we live in wa state and please pray for us and that God will not allow them to separate our family any further than it already is we are working to follow the Lord and change our circumstances.

Comment by Colleen Gocus — February 9, 2008 @ 11:58 am

I am the proud mother of 2 beautiful children. Joseph (almost 5) and Angelina (almost 2). CPS has been involved in our lives for 2 years, unfortunately. My parental rights have been terminated, but an appeal has gone through on my behalf. It is going to be a long painful fight. My babies have notseen me for 6 months. They say it could take 3 months to 3 years for an appeal. Even then it may be denied. Please keep my little angels in your prayers, that they know peace and have no worries. Hopefully, with Gods blessings, we will be reunited.

Comment by Jessica Campanella — February 9, 2008 @ 1:22 pm

I Jolene Payne, and husban DOug, have three adorable beautiful children. Who were tooken away from us. I miss them so much, I feel we have no family support.I cry myself to sleep everynight because my little family is all that I have left. We are fighting so hard to get them back. I just been released from jail, however my husband is still in custody. We have been in custody for 5 months, our next court date for the both of us is 2/27&28/08. I pray that God helps us out and that we will come out victorious in the end. I love my babaies so much I want them back in my life.

Comment by Jolene Payne — February 9, 2008 @ 6:07 pm

Please pray for Jayden, a 3 month old who was recently taken from his mother. She is 16 years old and was accused of not bonding with her child. He was in the hospital and while there, she would ask the nurses to watch him while she went to smoke. They said that that would be fine, so she would go and have a cigarette. They told CPS that she neglected him. Now that CPS has custody, they are leaving him alone in his hospital room and the nurses are checking on him. What’s the difference between Tia asking them to watch him and CPS having them watch him.
Tia’s a 16 year old doing the best she can. Her mother walked out on her when she was young and left her with an alcoholic father who is legally blind. She’s been unable to find rides to doctor’s appointments because her dad can’t drive. They call that neglect…please pray that she’ll be able to get Jayden back and that she will find a safe place for herself and the baby.
Thanks,

Comment by Tia Freeman — February 9, 2008 @ 7:18 pm

please pray for my kiddos
Austin and David

CPS have an open case but cant investigate child abuse on dad because it dosen’t fit the definition. however told me they were investigating me because dad failed to keep an appointment with DHS mediation and he has not rescheduled?

things such as:

dad leaving the child outside for 30-45 minutes alone at the bus stop after school on the side of the street in the winter.

no phone access for the child to call 911 or mom while at dads house

no access to clothes for the child at dads house child says he is told he can not wear a shirt to bed. he has wanted to leave the house in an arguement with dads wife but could not because he had no clothes

child denied food and water till dinnertime? when kept home from school. dad told school it was for sickness but the child states dad told him it was to prevent him from seeing his mom on his birthday after school. dad did not attempt to make an appointment with the pediatrician or ask her questions regarding sickness.

dad forces child to take ADHD medicine but fails to provide to mom for child when child is at moms so child goes through withdrawals every week

child states he is forced to sleep on the floor at dads because his bed is broken but he can not use the couch

child states he is constantly yelled at and cussed at and pushed into the wall by dad and forced to retreat to his room

child fails to do assignments at school so he can stay at the school longer or be brought in early to make up assignments to get out of dads house

but none of this will be investigated because its not to their definition of child abuse?

other young child had a bruise or rugburn on his hip under his diaper upon returning from a visit with dad

but the worker said she thought dad was lying and she wasnt going to investigate and she was going to close the case because she thought he was a great guy after talking to him on the phone and he said it was a custody issue?

pray for me too——!!!!!

I have to go meet with the director of the CPS where I live on Monday. I have filed a legitimate complaint through Quality Control and they want to review it with me the social workers and the supervisors and the facilitators and their supervisors at their HUB.

Comment by Misti — February 9, 2008 @ 9:49 pm

Pray for my children. I saw them today for a few hours. They smelled awful, like stinky feet. I think its because their father does not have a real shower for them. They either take tub baths, or pour cups of water on themselves while the faucet is running. They cry to come home. They cry about their father forcing them to say things to cps, not knowing that this is what would happen. They are miserable!!! They want to come home!! Their father is a slob, and his house is a mess. They are not use to living like that. They’ve always been with me, and always made sure that they were taken care of. Until cps ripped them away from me. Pray for my babies. Because they are living in misery!

Comment by L.K.H. — February 13, 2008 @ 10:50 pm

I need help. my daughter is a special neds child who appears normal. She accused my step son of molesting her. Now 9 month later she is accusing her father of the same because she is mad at him. there is a repeated patern for This action by her. Cps is postining to take the young ones away again.

Comment by Chris Lewis — February 14, 2008 @ 2:04 pm

Please pray for court on the 22nd.
We are finally getting a Judge to hear us and return our 2 little boys we were weeks away from adopting.
CPS refuses to admit thier error in removing them and is telling the new foster family they can adopt them. they have been in our home for almost 3yrs.
Plus it has seen been proven that the allegation (one only) made against my husband is false. the state admits that yet refuses to return our boys. Please pray for wisdom for this judge.

Comment by Dave and Amy — February 17, 2008 @ 1:56 pm

Please any of you out there take this advice pray and figure out how to get your children back and not be right. My sister and brother in law are dead. They died one week apart do to the stress of CPS. Now my mother has been ruled unfit and can not get my nephew. We were suppose to go to disney world but they ruled us unfit and having no rights after having weekend visistation with my nephew for a year. Please I will pray for all of you if you pray my mother gets custody of my nephew and out of the house of a woman who hated my sister and would not let her see him the day his dad and her husband died. She was to weak to the pressure CPS puts on you. Please all of you stay strong and pray that you will have the strength to get your children back and one day to change this terrible wrong system. Thank you and stay strong in the spirit of prayer. Katrina

Comment by Katrina — February 19, 2008 @ 1:51 pm

I simply ask for your prayers for my nieces and nephews. It has almost been a year since Hope(4), Sam(3), and Xavier(1) were taken from a very loving and overly safe home. Yesterday a new baby girl entered the world only to be ripped out of her mother’s arms. Grace is now alone in the world. An investigation that should have lasted 60-90 days has now lasted 330. This system is only robbing families of the moments in life that are treasured and leaving small children filled with questions and lasting pain. I pray that I will get to see my nieces and nephews again. Wisdom for our lawyers and for the judge in our case. Strength for my sister and brother-in-law during the newest addition to their great loss.

Comment by Kati — February 19, 2008 @ 6:49 pm

I just found this web-site. We desperately need your prayers. My daughter and son-in-law have been intruded upon by CPS. From all the horror stories I have heard of I am scared to death but am trying to not show that to my daughter and son-in-law. Please pray that this Gestapo style people will leave my family alone. Thank you.

Hello all my name is Ruth Bunch I am a mother of 3 and I have a petition going now because of CPS or DCBS . I for one am tired of people being wrongfully accused while other children are dieing because they turn their heads . If you would like to know more about what i am doing please feel free to contact me . I am just a mother but I feel like what i am doing can and will help … ruthie_conrad22@yahoo.com

Comment by RUTH BUNCH — February 20, 2008 @ 5:45 pm

Please pray for my niece and nephews. My brother and sister in-law have had some problems in the past and my brother has mental problems and refuses to get help. CPS went behind there backs and twisted a few accusations into bigger problems. I do believe the children deserve a better life and i’m hoping that this opens the eyes of the parents. My parents are trying to figure out how they could take care of the children. I’m just hoping god knows what he is doing and that the children will be in a safe place no matter what happens~Jeni

Comment by Jeni — February 21, 2008 @ 7:27 am

As I read these I know that I am not alone in a request for prayer for our family. It breaks my heart to think the very country my husband fights for can do this to good, descent families.

I was previously married to an abusive man. We had two children together, my prides & joys. After years of abuse I finally asked the Lord to help me to stand. I filed the necessary restraining order against him and his (at the time) girlfriend who threatened to kidnap my children. The Lord heard my prayers and granted both of them. Years later I moved on and married a wonderful man of God. We were to move out of state so he could finish his schooling to become a pastor. I would leave without my children.

A month before our move (I was 7 months pregnant with my husband & my baby, my 3rd) and it was high risk as I had a tear in my uterus. Anyways, I made the mistake of calling my mother to tell her we were going to file the paperwork to move out of Florida with my two children. She called DCF and filed a false report against my husband. My little boy had a bruise from playing with one of those metal tonka trucks that she gave him. She told them my 6′4, 220 lb, military trained husband BEAT my 4 yr old son. That was false. He had become their “daddy Jamie” filling in when their own father refused to even call them let alone visit them. Also to mention my mother’s husband took a shower with my son, who was 3 at the time and I was refusing him to be around my son.

The DCF worker shows up, not to investigate, but to accuse my husband. He made my son strip down to nothing to take pictures of a BIRTHMARK on his stomach saying it was a bruise! I have pics to prove he was born with it. When the social worker was outside the officer apologised and said it disgusted him & that DCF is NOT the law, though they try to be.

Feb 2, 2006 my ex used that to his gain to get my children ripped from their loving home in the middle of the night. I almost lost our baby, who now has two holes in his heart and a valve condition- probably due to the added stress since it was not detected till after the fact.

I am STILL fighting to get my children home. My ex has a criminal and violent history. He has failed to go to Anger mngt the second time, which was to be ongoing. He has failed to go to AA as well. I still have a rest order against him and yet he is still violating it. His wife has abused my children with wooden spoons, locked them in room (my former BIL saw this and called me- we don’t even get along and he told me this but as he fears for his mother’s safety from their father he will not testify and they will no longer allow him or his mother to see the children).

My husband and I have clean records. We are good people. He served 12 years honorably in the Army and got injured in Iraq. Now he is in the National Guard as a Chaplain’s asst and in school to be a minister and I for women, family & youth ministry. All I want is help and the system seems to give in to them!

Tonight while talking to my children for the few minutes the step mom will allow (breaking court order as usual) she started ripping at my daughter in the background. She is 8. I asked my 6 yr old son if everything was ok, he then got quiet and withdrawn. He seemed afraid to tell me. He first said it was the baby. No baby boy (same age as my youngest) screams like an eight year old girl (my daughter). Then the woman got on the phone threatened me & hung up. My children were scared and I am states away and can’t get through to them! I called back (I record everything) and demanded I talk to my children to make sure that they are ok. She threatened me, and more… Then threatened my daughter to get on the phone saying her mommy is threatening her. Why would I do that- and I recorded it all! I then called the local PD, who this time didn’t even talk to my children but to her. He said nothing is wrong. NO, I have it all recorded. He said that’s nice. I did take his last name and badge number, if it is real.

Now I contacted DCF for the second time. The first time was for physical abuse, with the spoons and locking in the rooms. They wouldn’t do anything since my children would not talk to them. I pray that a GOOD social worker will see through the lies and controlling and HELP my children!

Please pray for the safety of my little Ciara and Antonio. Please pray for the return of them to their mommy in a loving Christ centered home. They have only seen their baby brother 1x. They have asked repeatedly when they are coming home. We miss each-other and love each-other so much. I have no idea what they look like anymore- he won’t let me see them. I am tired, but God keeps us going.

Please join us in prayer that my babies come home & that justice is finally given to the just and not the unjust and abusive.

Thank you

FATHER GOD IN THE NAME OF JESUS,
I pray that the investigator find it in her heart to know that I have not abused any child in my care. I CLAIM VICTORY FOR A “UNFOUNDED” decision and that peace be restored to my family.NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME SHALL PROSPER. GOD please look after my foster son they took away. HE DID have many problems but only YOU GOD CAN FIX HIM.

I’m a single mother who has raised her daughter, Emily, since birth. My mother has played a large role in my daughter’s life, caring for her while I worked and being with me during her milestones. When my mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, then later fell and broke her hip, I went to her house, as requested by mother, to take care of her animals and clean. The supervisor of a program that was supposed to have cleaned her house found me there with my child and turned me in to CPS. They entered my mother’s home without being invited, pushing me up the stairs. They took pictures of my mother’s home, then took my child. It has been nearly 6 months. I have been pressured by my court appointed attorney, CPS, the judge and the prosecuting attorney to just admit to neglecting my child, something I did not do. I have been denied any visitation since Christmas. At first my visitation was denied because my cousin, who has my daughter, told CPS that I was plotting to kidnap her (there was no plot, my cousin just wants to adopt her). Then visitation was withheld as blackmail to get me to sign a plan despite me not being convicted of anything. Now it’s being withheld to try to force me to give up my right to a jury trial and just go before a judge (who is biased). Meanwhile, my mother has died without the child she loved so much and my daughter missed out on those precious last months with her beloved grandmother. My trial is set for March 4th, but the State has stated that they do not want a jury trial (I’m sure they know they don’t have the evidence to convince a jury). Please pray for me and Emily so we can be reunited, despite the corruption of this CPS system and the backstabbing of our family. Thank you.

I will be relocating to Kentucy, and am trying to get my daughter transferring. Please pray for my daughter’s transfer. I feel this would be the best place, to get assistance, and get her returned. California does not believe in families, only in destroying them.

Comment by Brenda — February 24, 2008 @ 9:44 pm

I need prayer,for i am in fear every single day, someone made a false claim against me, I can’t even believe im in this situation. someone who cant stand me,called and said we do drugs and drink,and my husband abuses me,and i hit my 2 year old in the back, oh my gosh I just could not belive what this person said about me, all of what she said in untrue, cps investagated me, well they left a card in my door, and i called him,he asked me to come down with my children to his office,we talked,he looked at my childrens back and so fourth,and of course found no bruises, i dont even whipp my kids at all. he told me i probably don’t have anything to worry about, and then i havent heard anything from him since then, it’s been 2 weeks since i spoke to him, i’ve called him several times and left messages, but he never returns my calls, im scared to death, i know people say dont worry if you dont have nothing to worry about, but i’ve also heard that cps is courputed, and they take kids away for no reason, my babys mean everything to me, everything.please pray for me,our children mean so much to us, and i just don’t understand how people can get away with calling cps and make false accusations. it just isnt right to just allow people to call in on someone and make up horrible lies like that, something needs to be done about those people.

Our past is our past and our future resides in our children but overall the system is the one that’s abusing the children due to that we is being told on how to discpline our children but when they get caught up in the system what do they do to our children..they would like to lock them up like animals behind bars, feeding them like animals,(slop), etc…Sis just keep your head up and keep having faith in GOD for he know best and he will make a way…I am one that don’t speak of the past to often but the past makes us the person we is today…We ask for help often when it comes to our children and they won’t help until they get in trouble and then we have no say of our children….It’s all a setup and we all need to stick together instead of turning on oneanother……and remember What goes around come Around…Erica

My children were taken in December. We have missed X-mas, new years and valentines day. We are also going to miss a Birthday. I have never been so lost in all my life. I have for the past 9 years lived for my family. I take one year off to stay home with my girls it turns out to be the worst mistake I’ve ever made.
I ask for prayers that CPS will abide by their word and reunite my family (so far they have only helped with bus passes)
CPS has moved my kids from shelter to a foster home, yet visits have not been set up. They don’t call anymore. I fear something bad has happened. Please pray that the lord be with them. Keep them strong and heal the gaping hole this has left in their souls. Please pray that I will be able to complete all assigned tasks and overcome this obstacle with a new found respect for just how nasty the gov. agencies can be.
Thank you
God bless

my sister is going thru a nightmare battle over her child, ccps did not take into consideration all the police reports and accounts she has on her ex. she obeyed the law to the letter. the ex paid a bundle to his friend psychologist and ccps is going to give the child over to the dad. a monster. he is the abuser/molester and his quak has painted him perfect….on visitations, the court did not even look at how the child doesn’t want to be with the dad, last visit w/dad the child went home to foster home and with 4 hour visit, wet her bed that night…is that good, help us please!!!!! help us protect my niece, I pray that these people look over all documentation before they turn over this child before the 15th of march

i need prayer, i have lost everything because of a lie. DFCS knew my kids lied and yet, they were allowed to go where ever they choose. my remaining kids are seriously acting up because they said if the others can do it and get away with it, so can way. i lost my job and i am suffering from severe depression. i was kicked out of my churchs youth dept because of the lies. i cant eat, sleep or barely function. i cried continous and have been publicly humilatied. i have nothing and no one left. my sanity is slowing leaving and DFCS keeps harrassing me. i need help and all of the prayers that i can get. i am innocent and had witnesses including my children at home who proved to DFCS there was never any abuse. but DFCs said so what, the kids can do as they pleased. i think of death as a way to escape DFCS because my name and reputation has been forever ruined.

We have been fighting DHS for a long time now, my sister-in-law made mistakes and the children were placed with my inlaws. They were well cared for, my sister-in-law is way better but they just keep putting her in rehab over and over, telling her she has to do this plan. All she wants is to be with her babies, go to school, and make something of herself. They won’t allow it to happen. They took the girls away from my in laws for a stupid reason, that doesn’t make sense. Dhs lied, falsified paperwork, and they are hell’s spawn. They could not have been in a better home with more loving people. now they are with a foster mom who has 5 other kids and she can’t even bother to check my niece’s backpack after school. They were yanked out of their home kicking and screaming. Literally. they laid a guilt trip on the oldest who is 5. My 4 year old son and 18 month old daughter witnessed it. This is a horrible way to treat children, it was very traumatizing to everyone. I pray all the time for help. We do not know what to do. If you have any ideas please email me at bmcmurtry01 at yahoo.com.
God help us all, these people are ruining lives just because they have power and for money.

Ms. Mc Murtry:

DHS pertains to several states and localities.

You need to indicate your residence state.

Please join the Message Boards here. Need to register. Use a fake email addy.

Note that MI has several active groups

See:

http://www.familyrights.us

Under contents–look for Members and Friends.

I believe I speak for Linda when I say that one of her objectives is to bring the entire US attention to the disaster CPS has morphed into.

Best wishes. Sounds like just another day to CPS in your locality. Has their been a Family meeting with CPS?

Please pray for us.My daughter came down to Cal.in Oct.of 2007 to house sit for the father of her child until she returned to school in Jan. in Wa.state.He was going to school in Sacramento and didn’t want to leave his fatheres house unoccupied because of some break-ins that had occurred.he was going to come home on week-ends to spend time with his daughter.When it came time for her to leave,he started threatening her and being physically abusive.he kept threatening to call the cops and tell them she abused him if she left.On the night of her flight,she was one mile away from the airport when a cop called and said there was a custody dispute.She had to leave her luggage there when dshe left and climb down the retaining wall with her daughter in her arms.She told the cops where her custody papers were.He called back and said,yes,you have custody,the father was confused about it.And then he said,he just needed to meet with her and make sure her and her daughter were ok.When she drove back and met with him,they arrested her for domestic violence,and threw her in jail.He had a scratch on his face and told them she did it.C.P.S stepped in and recommended the father(who has no rights in Wa. state,where she has sole custody)have temp.sole custody.Now they are keeping her in cal. where my daughter has no resources,and can’t leave.We are sleeping in her jeep,and going to food banks and soup kitchens to eat.We have no money left,and they just delayed court again until may.We are desperate.If she leaves,they will claim abandonment.we are trying to get jobs,but haven’t yet.C.P.S never even investigated.They just took his word for it.She has been her sole care provider since birth.She is 2 yrs. old and was ripped out of her mommy’s arms screaming.I am afraid of what this is doingh to her.Now they want supervised visits,and they cost $250.00 per visit.It is at his discretion to let her visit or not,or have it supervised or not,and everyday he changes his mind.He is trying to use her daughter against her to try and get her to come to his house.he has a restraining order against her.Please pray for us,we need help.We are running out of time.Thank-you,and God Bless!
