The fact your church will say “you’re not saved anymore” is a huge red flag. You can never be unsaved. It says so in the Bible. I grew up in a Mennonite area and still live here. Not all Mennonite churches are like this though, so people watching this please don’t paint us all with the same brush. Sounds like it’s a good thing you left this specific church. I pray you find a Bible believing church and don’t stray away from God because of this! 🙏🏻

Love it* how you say I couldn't have ever done that to my family. I loved them and the church.*yet you love the church.Well... you saw Christianity as a door way to not wearing long dresses and being closed off from everyone and social media and people. Let's just say the truth. There's others of us that have left a place or as others call it a cult of religion. Who cares if they anole it if you left then you left.

So awesome! I love your testimony!

Thank you very much. You are a very brave young lady to share this. I was hoping you would share what your relationship with your family is (parents, brothers, etc).

I really appreciate your story! I live a few provinces away and my grandparents went through the same thing that you have been going through. I had a mentor who was from a Mennonite background and would travel around the world to reach the Mennonite communities with the Gospel and it gives me hope that there are more people out there that are open to the truth. I was really touched by your desire to learn more, musically. I hope you are able to do so in the future. -A sister in Manitoba😊

I visit a Mennonite church here locally from time to time. Im not allowed to become a member because: i don't wear a cape dress, i drive an SUV, and i have a television in my house, so, because of those things im not allowed to a member, only a visitor. Also, because im only allowed to be a visitor, im not allowed to partake in communion. Because i was such an outsider, it was too painful/sad to stay around

Man is created in the image of God , and man naturally has a beard , so it's how God intended for men.

These girls are sisters mothers or whoever they are which one of them was really close to me it's really sad that anybody would judge them whether they're on drugs or not or whether they're selling their bodies this is the situation that we live in in this world there's nowhere there's no help whether you're on drugs or not the real people that's all I can say

Violet was very very sweet girl she's no longer with us I miss her a lot she was my friend and I'll never forget her❤

Bless your heart! I will be praying for you! God will lead you. xx

I am coming from another perspective . I am trying to learn Mennonite theology to apply the functional parts to my life. If you think the glamour of society is great you just have to read the news. However I see that you want to abandon the dysfunctional , and that is 100% right. But if you think the world is where you find functionality you have something else coming.

It’s important for people to understand that most Mennonite groups do not feel like they are the One True Church. Most Mennonite groups do teach the Gospel. While they might have some blind spots in the legalism department, many, many of them are true believers. This is your experience, and I’m sorry for you, I really am. But it isn’t what all Mennonites are, across the board.

So no jobs ?

I have no respect for any of these homeless.Most of them get most money more money than most people get in a month.They choose to be out there.They've in my neighborhood a lot over the last few years because we had a temporary hope mission over here at the race track.They leave garbage everywhere.They don't respect themselves so how do we expect to respect them

Unwatchable...cant hear.....

Hey! Fellow ex Mennonite here (old colony). Thanks for sharing your story. I really enjoyed listening... also it sounds like maybe youre Albertan as well?

Homelessness will triple in the next three years

You are an inspiration! I left the Amish community, and my reason for leaving was because I seeked God's guidance, and He showed me Biblical truth. Praise Jesus! I would love to know more about the mennonite side of the Anabaptist and how close the doctrines or Ordnung is to the Amish.

I’m still curious wtf they spend their $1800/month on?!?! No rent, no utilities, transportation, free snacks and supplies, no kids (to take care of)….

..WHY, only the interviewer has a mic and the interviewee's none?...I couldnt hear their stories but sure heard the questions LOUD AND CLEAR...🙄 If all stories are going to be in this format?...No sense in subscribing...👍🏼

The reasons the programs are not working is because our government makes a fortune off of corruptions. Why is there not enough women's shelters???? Why are there not enough women's support groups in Edmonton. Why are we not supporting more so women and children are not forced to separate and be forced to the streets or their old lives . Then talk about the veterans. Just look up what the governments supplied during WW2 The three things the government supplied as a stress release during world war 2 is Booze Cigarettes And women ...... Tell me the governments promotions then never created a mass devastating factor for many families who suffer from the history of the damages war caused many families, ethics even.... In reality social workers have no clue how to really help individuals into programs that actually work for people that help the succeed. The mental health crisis here in Alberta let alone Edmonton is awful . Watch the security at the U of A throwing people onto the sidewalks who clearly need mental health and serious addictions help . Yet having to ask my own therapist how am I to have success seeing how they truly treat people who seriously need the interventions of mental health/ addictions help . We need more supportive groups that actually work for people not fail them . Officers need better training on how to deal with mental health crisis. I had officers say that people like me are cheaper in the ditches and then we wonder why there is a problem in society. I suffer from past suicidal tendencies mental health and past abuse . A daughter on life support, lost a son due to medical negligence. Lived through cancer and brain bleed . Lost our home , it took 8 months for me to get into a home a women's shelter was not easy to get into to . Even now it's scary because the obstacles our governments make for people to have stability in their success.

This entire interview is two drug addicts blowing smoke up your ass, diverting your attention from their drug addictions.

You are truly beautiful inside and out ❤ I would love to meet you.❤

I would like to meet the lady in all black

I would love to see a follow up on these two and see if anything has changed in a year.

Hi Katie! You're so on target and on point here, and I thank you for these videos! I just found your channel today and I see that you haven't posted in almost a year. Are you still out there I'm hoping you're alive and well because this content is great and I'd love to talk to you about it too! ✝️

I was on the streets in Edmonton 15yrs ago,I was there for 3 yrs. My reserve kicked me out,so i had no where to go. But i got myself out of that way of life. I was a drug and alcohol abuse. I was shooting up 1800,a day. I found Jesus and quit. Im still sober,and im still with Jesus

That is perfectly true! Thank you!!! 💜

Standard ploy: all the right-wing neo-cons flood the comments with the usual blaming the victum horse poop!

Get off the drugs. Things get better.

Addictions keep them on the street , as it does for alot of others ,, being on thr dtrrt allows homeless addictd to use whastever there using , where as in the shelter they cant , I feel compasion for them , other than the made up victim stories they were telling and then the later stories would contradict the previous story , .

How do we minister to em then? Just lead by example and cross paths here and there? Great video btw. I have alot of questions and appreciate this kind of content although nothing replaces the bible.

I came from the church of christ, extremely conservative and very superstitious, suits are mandatory, "come as you are" is completely ignored, my father would beat us mercilessly, because he would claim we brought satan into his house, i am terrified of ever exposing my children if i have any to this type of monolithic behavior,i am on my owm spiritual journey exploring the world and spiritually through my own eyes instead of a eyes of a man who claimed he knew god, Christianity was important in me understanding my place but my purpose is always changing just like the ocean.

There is lots of work in the summer and winter. They can get a job anywhere they want. It's called applying everywhere in edmonton. If you try harder to get out of this kind of life. You will do it. You need to keep positive mindset. Always dress up and look the best when you are applying. When they ask for address. Give a family remembers address or a cell number. There are tons of people who are standing by the lights all the time, holding a sign help us. We can help some people out that's fine. But you guys need to help yourself by trying to look for a job too. Don't complain if you get a job at a fast food restaurants or anything. It's a job and it will help you to make money. Save that money then you can have a roof over your head & food all the time too. Before winter comes, I want too cook some food and hand them out. I'm not doing it for money or anything. It's that I like helping another's. I will help out how much I can. I understand how life is & understand how it feels when you don't have anything in your life. I'm not trying to be rude or mean. I know how life is because I been through that road and seen how family's don't want to help you too. It's fine. There is always God watching us from the top. 1 day the person who didn't help you out in life will need help. God will show them what they did and God will punish them 🙏. Life is short so we all gotta make something out of it. Stay safe and I will do whatever I can to help out. 🙏 amen!

Everything they say is true

First. Alberta is the ONLY province in Canada that pays for disability caused by alchohol and drug use, including addiction, AND no one has a program like Aish, Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped, the golden ticket. Edmonton has always been a transient city. Every summer, people flock from everywhere to "cowboy" it, living on the street and doing lots of drugs and booze. The real homeless stay the winter. Lots of help and support, with housing programs, rent and power deposits, furniture, food etc. We mandate to help the drug addicts, in nice condos, while the seniors and disabbled are shit out of luck. Don't listen to these drug addict prostitutes. They got a paradise here. We perpetuate the problem with all the missions feeding them 8 times a day, free change of clothes. Private charaties give out more food, hygiene, clothes. Trust me, they WANT to be homeless.

Trudeau must go

The people in the comments show that people are sad, angry humans I feel bad for you people getting angry over homeless people and if you can't hear the women get your hearing checked out 😅

Good morning born and breed on those streets 7yrs old I am 47 yrs old 5 bad kids at home that we rent and dad has not stopped working for them since there oldest brother blessed my life he's 21 and works beside me saving numerous communities in alberta and surrounding provinces. Step 1 take control of your addiction step 2 find out what you are fighting for step 3 never give up never surrender step 4 life ain't easy you get stronger step 5 everything you want is not gonna happen that second so live life like water off a ducks back step 6 bathe enjoy your minute don't rush and see what that does for you step 7 repeat steps 1 thru 7 daily weekly monthly yearly and I hope I see empty streets once again. Respect Love Honesty

After watching this I have to say most folks blame homeless on mental illness, and addition to drugs, after hearing this young lady say I am homeless live in a tent have six kids who I don't care for. I would have to argue education is lacking from a lot of these people.

These comments. Dang… I don’t even want to say any opinions anymore.
