My affiliation with GOV starts years before it existence with my mother being influenced by Bishop Whitlock for many years. He was the founder of a group that has had several names but after his death Mary Whitlock, his common law wife, took over his ministry and eventually became " Visions For The Nations". This was where "Generations of Virtue" was birthed.
Now back to my connection, Mom was eventually drawn in and moved to where ever thy told her to.Including New York City in the old Bradford Hotel that was infested with rats and roaches and eventually closed. The ladies would dress in blue and white smock type uniforms and stand on the sidewalk and speak to anyone that would listen. They held meetings and people would come and either become enthralled or run! Then Mom moved to New Jersey and I am not sure where she went from there as she did not keep in touch with me. Now just to let you know Mom was a very bright woman with 2 degrees from Penn State and Harvard, and a broken heart as the love of her life, my Dad left her after a 22 yr marriage.
Eventually Mom was in Lewiston CA and contacted me as the building and property was being sold and she was coming east. My daughter was getting married and she was coming to the wedding then going to Conesus, New York. When Mom went to the wedding she came in a pink toned uniform the same as the white and blue ones. After the wedding she went to Conesus and would not let us drive her but made her own arrangements. She was to live in the building that is known as THE MISSION. Now owned by Kay Hiramine under what name I am not sure now. Over the years I would go visit Mom and sometimes my adult children wanted to connect with her as their grandmother. They would go to hug her and she would resist and block the hug. Later I was told by my mother that the hugs were 'lustful". She would let me hug her though. Mixed messages always.
Mom had little to no money so my husband and I began supporting her monthly and helping with extra expenses when the need arose. All this doesn't sound BAD does it? Well under all this was a true distortion and self loathing brought on from hours Mom spent on or in charge of the "PRAYER CHAIR".
When the main group would go back to the HOMES in CO. While a few families and several older ladies stayed at the Mission where the heat was bad and Mom was cold as I found out later due to poor heating.Mom started having bad health and I was summoned to her side. At that point Mary Whitlock started wooing me with private conversations and questions of my history with my mother. That history is a book in its self. I returned home and Timing gets a bit fuzzy here for me as my husband left for another and I was a mess as it was 43 yr marriage. I then got another call that mom was getting weaker and could I come and stay for a time. So off to NY I went.
Moms health was declining and at that time Mary Whitlock started a time of "ministry" and I was included in the sessions. Mom was accused of hating Mary and trying to harm her and lusting after Mary's position. I was later to find out that for years my mother was giving Mary Whitlock a $100. 00 a month out of the ever so small income she had from my dads SSI. No one was to know because the LORD TOLD MARY IT WAS BECAUSE MY MOM OWED IT TO HER for passed OFENSES!!!! All the time this was going on Mary had very sweet and comforting times with me and encouraged me to move there until my life was straightened out or Mom passed away. So I did stay. My first big mistake. I was hurting for many reasons and was holding on by a thread.
The difference when Mary, Kay and Julie were at the Mission and when they were in CO was almost comical. We all at the Mission got along and had fun and enjoyed our fellowship until the dreaded conference calls 2 times a week or on demand of Mary. All day long one of several people were at Mary's beck and command on the phone for hours of prayer to which the children were called to spend time in active prayer for someone for some reason during the school time or playtime.
To cut some out and get to my story as time passed I got more and more involved and was drawn in at a very vulnerable time. It ended up I was doing the financial books for the church, personal accounting and bill paying for Mary Whitlock and for GOV. Along with sewing what ever was needed at what ever time it was needed. I truly did not mind as it kept my mind off myself but then the hammer comes down! After I left my home and moved in lock stock and barrel and Mom had passed away I had to fill in where others had worked and had been told to leave the ministry. Never a good thing.
At one point I was doing all the above stated things, then was given the responsibility of the oldest Heramine daughters home schooling while they were in CO and she was on discipline. That had been the assignment of a mom who home schooled her own children while taking care of their youngest child who has downs syndrome. Such a sweetie. She also was daily on the phone with Mary and responsible for so many parts of the function of the ministry, while her three oldest under 20 year old daughters where with the Hiramines raising their children. Home schooling them and much more.
To fill you in I was in my 60's and had been semi handicapped by Lymes and Fibro and needed the use of electric scooter for any distance. The building is huge and the offices of GOV was at either end of long hallways so I had my scooter inside. but then up stairs to VFN offices and my room and sewing room. Needless to say I was exhausted and in pain at the end of the day when no one was at the Mission but worse when they all came and the demand was more.
So much more to say but can be expanded later. One thing I always had a very hard time with was when one young girl was put on the prayer chair because she was causing trouble "in the spirit" for the CHOSEN child of the Hiramines. Or directly to Mary even when they were in CO and she was in NY. It became almost daily when the Hiramines were in NY. This was emotional and discipline abuse.
When it was my time to be tested on the prayer chair I was accused of making myself indispensable and wanting power. Yet I was told to do all that I was doing. Things went down hill fast and when I thought back it started when I told Mary that I was having financial problems as my husband lost 2 of our 3 businesses and was going to divorce me. After several weeks of degradation on the prayer chair I was told I had 2 weeks to get out and no one was to help or speak to me. I had my entire belonging there on 4 floors and no money or place to go. I could be given $500.00 if I left that much worth of my belonging there as I in the spirit was demanding to be taken care of and that was not going to happen according to Mary with Kay's approval. So I packed up as much as I could gave most of everything to Salvation Army and drove to CT to stay with friends for a time. I was truly homeless and so sick and traumatized I could not mentally function.
I witnessed there children, young mothers and old woman being spiritually and emotionally abused and used in the name of the Lord. Unless you have ever come under the spell of a dynamic personality you may not understand how this works. Please don't judge those of us that were members and seek the truth that the only ones that benefited from all of this was truly Kay and Julie and the ministry of Generations of Virtue. Free help and donations to cover ALL expenses including luxury cruses and vacations with full staff and child care for their 5 children.
I hope I have given some view of the wrong that is being done as families are broken apart for the purpose of alienation and servitude to GOV and the Hiramines and will be dismissed when the time comes they are no longer needed. Please be aware.
