Grace Rosado, founder & executive director of New Life Home in Manchester NH, along with NLH Program Director Jessica Aquino, were my guests for this episode of, ‘Frankly Speaking’, which was taped in the Access Nashua studio on 9/23/19.

New Life Home, which has been operating in Manchester for over 40 years, helps women battle various aspects of abuse including: drugs, alcohol, domestic violence, and sex trafficking. Ms. Aquino was a former NLH resident before she became its Program Director and her testimony was truly very compelling and emotional.

Much of the New Life Home’s program consists of Christian principles from the Bible, specifically John 10:10 which Jesus proclaims He came that those who believed in Him might have life, and have life more abundantly. NLH also focuses on job and life skills for their residents so that they may be better equipped for when they’re ready to leave and go back into society.

Since New Life Home is not a government agency, it relies on financial support from area churches and individual contributions. If you wish to donate to NLH either on a one-time or recurring basis, or have some of its residents give a testimonial presentation at your church, please log onto: NewLifeHome.org for further information.

Sharon DiFronzo of Screamin Heart records sang the Intro and Outro theme song for this particular episode.

P.S. Please check out the Promotional Video initiated by the New Life Home, which I posted in the Comment section of this particular Thread. It’ll probably give you a much better perspective of this organization over and above my interview with Ms. Rosado and Ms. Aquino.

Can you say, “Double Standard”?

Wasn’t Donald Trump severely criticized by the mainstream media and Democrats a few weeks ago when he failed to correct an audience member at one of his Town Hall forums and that individual said, while asking a question, that President Barack Obama was a Muslim?

So now about a month later, at another public Town Hall forum also held in New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton simply starts laughing when a man in the audience suggested he wanted “strangle” Carly Fiorina.

Should we expect less of a “response” from Hillary Clinton than we do Donald Trump, just because Clinton is a woman? Is that supposed to be “more responsible behavior” of someone we might elect as our next U.S. President? I don’t think so.

Personally, that’s sort of like asking the question, Which smells worse: Cow manure or Horse manure?
