      <image:caption>Pastor Sharon Magapu of Bethel International Ministries hosts ongoing sessions of Soul Care for Women, a biblical pathway to inner healing and deliverance. Women talk honestly about their experiences and feelings, especially those sometimes too difficult to initiate. Topics of discussion include depression, injustice, loneliness, regret, insecurities, perfectionism, financial struggles, parenting, addictions, traumatic events and anything else keeping us awake at night. Classes are free and meet via Zoom every other week. For more information please send an email with your name and cell phone number to info@unitedsouls.org.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Abuse - Sexual Abuse</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sexual abuse ravages the soul, causing unimaginable damage. Sexual abuse is not about sex. It is about power and includes any sexual behavior performed without a person’s consent. Examples include: Hurting a person physically during sex Forcing a person to have sex with other people Pressuring a person to have sex when they don’t want to Pursuing sexual activity when a person is not fully conscious or too afraid to say no</image:caption>

      <image:title>Abuse - Technological &amp; Cyber Abuse</image:title>
      <image:caption>Technological and cyber abuse includes the use of technology to control and/or stalk a person. It can happen to people of all ages, but it is more common among teenagers who use technology and social media to interact in a manner often unmonitored by adults. Examples include: Demanding to know a person’s passwords Hacking into a person’s email or personal accounts Impersonating a person’s online identity or creating fake social media accounts in order to harm another’s reputation or relationships The gathering of photos, videos or personal information to be used online for the purpose of threatening, humiliating or harassing another Monitoring interactions via social media for tracking purposes Using spyware or tracking devices in a person’s cell phone or computer to monitor their location, phone calls or messages</image:caption>
