My name is Scott G and I understand that this post is about the Rebekah Home for Girls. The reason why I am commenting is I was in the Anchor Home for Boys for a year which was part of the same ministry as the Rebekah Home for girls. I was there for a year, based on my experience, they taught the Bible. Yes, they played Roloff tapes, but 6 AM - 7AM was Bible reading, then after breakfast, they had ACE School which is a recognized Christian Education curriculum. During my stay at Anchor, I saw no abuse, they taught me respect, which later served me well in the US Navy and Army. I remember at Christmas Pastor Cameron came to Missouri and handed out presents to the Anchor Boys and Rebekah Girls. I got spanked or padded, BUT Jerry Rodriguez was fair in his dealings and paddings. He would ask us if we knew why, then he would pray then give us our swats. ONLY on the behind. I know that Roloff Ministrys never did believe in drugs or chains of any sort. I don't know how the girls were treated, but I think it's safe to assume that they were treated the same way as the boys were if they were part of the same ministry. I have my own beliefs which don't coincide with the fundamental Baptist, but I can safely say in my opinion, that the Roloff Homes did more good than harm. I saw first hand how the Lord used them to turn street punks into future Preachers. Also, if anyone wishes to add me on FB, look up Scotty MacGregor, my profile pic is the Greenbay Packers logo.
