Hiding Behind the Cloth - Memoirs of an Innocent Child, Used [Paperback]

This was the true story of a home full of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, beginning at the age of 4. It was hell, disguised and hidden behind Christianity. This book tells the story of innocence taken away by the devil himself. Ernest Francis, a minister for the United Methodist Church, was a child pedophile who repeatedly and viciously molested his own children. I was raped well over 500 times during my childhood, beaten on a regular basis by my brother, and forced by my adopted family to live with my rapist until I was able to move out of the home the spring of 1990. I write this book in hope that each of you may be able to recognize some of these signs of abuse in another child and subsequently find the courage to reach out and help. Maybe such acts of kindness and concern will amount to nothing, or maybe you just might save a soul from destruction and despair.
