Safe Haven Newsletter for January 2023Welcome to 2023! Yay! We’re done with 2022. Our new year is starting out a bit discouraging, but we refuse to be downcast. There are just too many good things that God has done for us to let the devil’s plots and schemes against us get us down. We are holding onto the hope that God has good plans for us to give us a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 The news is not encouraging if you get it from the usual sources. But if you know what’s happening on Twitter, you know that A LOT of corruption is being exposed. Elon Musk is letting the truth be spoken on Twitter. Freedom of speech has been restored there. The truth about Covid and how it was used to control and manipulate people and steal their freedom is coming out. We have found out that the FBI and CIA have censored Conservatives and interfered with our elections. We learned that Twitter censored information that was true but went against the U.S. government’s agenda. They removed tweets and accounts that exposed Hunter’s laptop and called it “Russian disinformation”. But the laptop has been proven to be authentic. And they knew that. We also now know that Google, Facebook, Reddit, Amazon, Instagram, WhatsApp, Microsoft, Netflix, YouTube, and more social media and online payment systems engaged in censorship and canceled anyone whose opinion went against the government’s narrative. Watch this video of President Trump’s speech about banning federal agencies from colluding with Private companies to stifle Free Speech. If you haven’t read any of the Twitter Files, you really ought to check them out. I realize that all of the topics I just mentioned do not seem like good news, either, but the good news is that the deception and manipulation are being exposed! And Twitter has been cleaned out of the corrupt, morally bankrupt people who were running things. FBI and CIA agents that worked there have been exposed. I know of at least one agent who was fired. I think more have been let go. Twitter has been very influential in shaping opinions, thoughts, and emotions. It has actually been a weapon used against all of us. Speaking of morally bankrupt, have you heard about the family-friendly drag queen shows? An oxymoron at the least. Can you believe that moms actually take their children to these events? The woke crowd has gone too far. But now for some truly good news, there is lots of proof that President Trump is still our Commander-in-Chief. I know it sounds crazy, but research Derek Johnson’s work, and you will see facts from the Law of War manual that prove that President Trump is still the leader of our military forces. Derek talks about how the National Guard is federalized so that they are sent to other states and even countries, when normally they would only stay in their own state. President Trump is the one who federalized them. And it’s still in effect. I know an Ohio guardsman who was recently sent to Iraq. That’s not normal. And many important executive orders that President Trump instituted have been extended by Biden. They are orders that concern foreign election interference and human trafficking and the penalties for those activities. There’s a thing called Continuation of Government that is happening now. We are in a military operation. The Biden administration is fake, and President Trump is still in charge – at least of the military. Biden has never mentioned Space Force and they never mention him. He campaigned on the promise to shut down Gitmo, but he hasn’t done it. In fact, they are expanding their facilities. Why do you think he hasn’t been able to do what he wanted to do? He could have revoked all of President Trump’s executive orders, but he hasn’t. And those EO’s will have dire consequences for Biden himself because of his election interference and human trafficking offenses, among other things. The left thought they “got Trump” again and subpoenaed him to come before the J6 Committee. But the Committee withdrew the subpoena, and now they’re finished. There was talk of arresting Trump, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen now. If they do, it won’t work out the way they want it to. Did you know that Overpopulation is a myth? Do some research on the subject, and you’ll see that it was based on faulty assumptions from the beginning starting with Thomas Malthus’s work. He made some false assumptions about human population growth and was not aware of future advances in food production. You can find out more in this article. You can draw your own conclusions from that. One is that they had better stop their depopulation efforts! ~~~~Homeschool Corner~~~~ On the homeschool front, did you know that homeschooling is still popular? The numbers are still up from pre-pandemic levels. Many parents found out that they could do a better job than the schools. Some parents found out what the schools were teaching and decided they didn’t want their children exposed to that. You can read more here. In this new year in the middle of the school year, now would be a good time to take stock of how things are going in your home school. This would be a great time to pray about the plans you make for the rest of the school year. My friend, Jessica, talks about making a vision board for yourself and your children. If you want to know more about how to do that, In our Intentional Homeschool Planning Community, we will be talking about prayerfully seeking God in 2023 for your homeschool, your life, your family, and your community. You can join us for 30 days for free to see if we’re a good fit for you. We also have a Christian Mom’s Book Club that we are offering to moms who desire support, prayer and building friendships. The book topics we will cover will be on parenting, personal growth, homeschooling, etc. And if you are looking for a prayer book that is geared toward Homeschooling and Parenting, check out my book, Short, Powerful Prayers for Busy Homeschool Moms. It’s free on Kindle Unlimited. As you are doing your assessment of your homeschool, if you find that things are not going as well as you would like, check out my book called 5 Steps to Becoming a Great Homeschool Parent or my other book called The Basics of Learning and Homeschooling. They are also free on Kindle Unlimited. I pray that you and your family have the best year yet. I truly believe that the best is yet to come, in spite of the way things appear at the moment. Enjoy this video and remember to roll with the punches and LAUGH! https://t.me/SantaSurfing/47274 Love and Cheer, Penney Douglas, B.S in Ed. Safe Haven Homeschooling |

Inspire Your Children with Missionary Biographies
Heidi Baker – missionary to Mozambique
I love missionaries! I wanted to be one, but I had 10 children instead.
But I wanted my children to know about these wonderful heroes called missionaries. So I read lots of missionary biographies to them during our homeschooling. I thought I would share with you the ones that made the biggest impression on my kids and me.

Why Are So Many People Dying Suddenly?
Watch this eye-opening video and find out.

Do You Want Your Life Planned for You?
Who is Deciding Everything for Us?
There is a group of “philanthropists” that think they know what’s best for all of us. They also think of themselves as elites and the rest of us as “chattel” (animals) or something they own. The Rockefellers are in this lofty group. And another family you may have heard of – the Rothschilds. There are other families, too, involved in planning our lives for us. Plus assorted individuals who have joined themselves to the exalted ranks of the elites.
I found this book of scenarios they put together for what may happen in the future. They concocted 4 different scenarios that could possibly happen. The first one, Operation Lockstep, looked eerily like the covid fiasco we just went through.
The second scenario called Clever Together is the one that the elites seem to favor. They think it will have the most favorable outcomes as far as political and economic alignment and adaptive capacity. It basically says that the developed countries would pool their resources to solve the big global problems, starting with climate change, of course. They talk about reducing greenhouse gases and carbon sequestration and all the methods they would use to do that. People would be pressured to reduce waste and increase efficiency in planet-friendly ways. This sounds a lot like what they’re teaching our kids in schools.
So it looks like they tried the Lockstep scenario first to see how far the people would let them go in removing all of their freedoms and how many people would obey all of their commands in the covid plandemic scenario.
While all along they have been indoctrinating the next generation with fears about climate change and impending disaster so that they will do whatever they’re told in order to save the planet. And in the process they are turning our children against us because they perceive us as being stupid and not doing what we need to do to save the planet. So they are angry at the current generation (their parents and grandparents) and have all but lost respect for us.
From what I’ve been hearing, the students don’t really respect their teachers, either, in a lot of schools.
What is their true agenda?
I was shocked when they shut down the schools during the plandemic. I never thought they would let the children escape their grasp for any period of time. They were always so insistent that kids have to attend school 180 days a year. And they frowned on students who had excessive absences and sent out truant officers to round up the ones who missed a lot of school. I couldn’t believe they let a virus that didn’t even affect kids shut down their schools!
But that wasn’t the only thing that shocked me during that time. I couldn’t believe what officials were demanding or what people were willing to go along with. I didn’t go along with any of it. I saw it for what it was – an attack on freedom and liberty. I did not cooperate with any of it. That meant I didn’t go many places during that time. I refused to wear a mask. It’s a good thing Gary went to the grocery store for us. I guess I did cooperate with the “stay at home” rule, but not because I believed the narrative they were spreading.
I knew that the whole thing was leading to vaccines and vaccine passports.
Do you know that leaders in some countries are still making plans to require vaccine passports for international travel?
The B20 Business Summit which is part of the G20 Summit was recently held in Bali, Indonesia. And some leaders there were saying that the member countries will require vaccine passports for international travel.
Do we want these people making all of these decisions for us?
But I come back to my original questions. Do you want your life planned for you? Who is making all of the decisions for us?
I will give you my answers. I don’t want anybody but God and my husband and me planning my life. And I don’t trust the ones who have appointed themselves to make all of the decisions for the whole world. Who asked them to do it in the first place? We didn’t elect them or cry out to them to save us from ourselves. They are operating from an anti-God, anti-family, anti-personal freedom belief system. I do not want them deciding anything for me!
They are the ones who are instituting socialism everywhere. They promote open borders, gay marriage, abolition of families, depopulation, and even transhumanism.
These people really are evil. Most of them worship satan. The WEF and all of them are pushing these agendas that are destroying our traditional values. They have made their plans, and they are carrying them out.
But God…
But God is not letting them get away with it. He has raised up righteous people to fight against these ungodly agendas. There are people in the militaries, in the governments (a few), and among the good people of the world who are taking down the evil cabal. He raised up President Trump to lead this movement. It’s the America First movement, but it is helping all of the people of the world, setting them free from the oppression of the deep state. The bankers have been stealing from us. Our government has been stealing from us.
Life is not supposed to be so hard. They have been making our lives more difficult. But their rule is coming to an end. They can have all the summits they want to discuss new ways to oppress us, but they are not going to be able to carry out their plans anymore.
God has made a plan, and He is carrying it out through His people. Don’t be afraid of what they try to throw at us. Keep trusting God, and He will take care of you. Pray for wisdom and use discernment. Don’t fall for anything the media tells you. All they do is lie. Don’t let fear come into your heart. Don’t be discouraged or despairing. The celebrities, the media, the government, education – they are all being taken down and refashioned. We are entering into a whole new era. And it will be good, because it won’t be controlled or run by evil ones anymore.
You may have heard the phrase “Trust the Plan”. I have wondered about that. I have a general trust in it because I trust the people who have made the plan. But the Plan that I really trust is God’s Plan. He is the only One that can make all things work together for our good. I believe that He is the One that gave the Plan to the good people who are genuinely trying to save the planet and all of us who dwell on it.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Psalm 24:1,2
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
Have no fear, God is near. He is here. And He is moving on our behalf.
If you are interested in reading the document about the scenarios I talked about, you can find the whole thing here. It was written in 2010.
It’s called “Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development” by The Rockefeller Foundation.
Another interesting read is “The New World Order” by Ralph Epperson. You can read it here.
Be blessed today!!!

"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is placed in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into its soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no other's hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller
