The PJS Ministry is devoted to “saving God’s Children” by donating
blankets sewn by volunteers to childhood abuse crisis centers.
With the words JESUS LOVES ME embroidered on them, the blankets
are given to abused children. The second mission of the ministry
is to advocate child abuse awareness.
This excerpt is taken from Rev. Dr. Warren "Billy" Bonthius' book, Blanketed by Love.
"That evening, after a child’s
day of fun and play, the small girl puts on her pj’s, feeling safe
and protected as she climbs into her welcoming bed. She snuggles
up under her blankets; the soft, warm feeling comforting her.
Daddy comes into the room to say good night. He approaches her
bed; a child’s cocoon of security and warmth, with malice and evil
intent, that sweet child’s whole world is destroyed; shattered
into shards of pain and disbelief.
After the abuse, the little girl grabs her blanket, the one that
used to surround her with soft promise of nighttime dreams and
rest, and runs out into the dark, cold night. Falling down under
a tree, she clenches her blanket. Warm tears flowing down her flushed
cheeks, she looks up to the starry sky and cries out silently,
asking Jesus, “Why? What did I do to be so bad?” She would never
be able to go back to being that happy child."
Blanketed by Love is a gut clenching yet heart warming
true story of how and why the PJS Ministry was established. The book is on sale through Paypal and Amazon.
