Overcomer Seminar – Training With Purpose

This seminar is designed for individuals who have felt the horrific pain and suffering of child abuse and exploitation and who want to leave brokenness behind, take back their lives, and step into the light as an overcomer. The faith-based program will provide survivors of abuse with motivational and strategic tools and steps to reach inward to rediscover their core identity and take action as an overcomer. Caring adults interested in combatting trafficking and helping survivors will learn to understand a traumatized mindset, how to navigate the healing stages of the overcomer, the role of destiny in one’s life journey, and the value of standing in the gap as the testimonies of victims continue to rise. It is time for the victims and survivors to be treated with honor, integrity, and credibility. It is time for the public to stop victimizing the offender and to support the survivors. Participants will learn how they can add value in this area and help be a voice for the voiceless.

Instructor: Lynz Piper-Loomis, Overcomer


My Life History An Encounter that Changed My Life

A key event in my life occurred 27 years ago at the age of twelve, September 19, 1994. I call it “my alive day.” My mother and I were returning from a 4H meeting and our car was hit by another car directly on the driver’s side, killing my mother and me instantly. But God saved my life and brought me back.

I was trafficked through Child Protective Services at 13, was sexually assaulted and enslaved for three and a half years, and escaped to freedom at 16 and a half years old.

At the age of 25, I needed to make a decision about the burden, pain, and agony I was carrying from the loss of my mom and other life events. The only person affected was me, and I was the only person who could do something about it. People are responsible for their own hearts, and I am responsible for my heart. I had to ask myself, “Do I want to walk around as a victim or do I want to overcome?“

God taught me to answer the question, “What do you want to do with your circumstances? Are you going to allow them to define you?” It was then that I realized I could move forward to the plan God had for my life. I am happy to say, that plan included my husband of almost 17 years.

Now it is time for me to give back to America for all it has given me. I am ready to serve the great people of this state and this nation.
