Self-Help Author of 'WHEN ANGELS DIE' to Lead Discussion at MACE Conference, 6/7
By: Matt Smith Jun. 06, 2014
A young single mother's world forever changed when she was raped and left for dead in her own home in July 1993. She survived, but her entire family was left with scars that took years to heal.
Caroline de Chavigny, author of the self-help book "When Angels Die," will share her story at Ministers Against Child Exploitation Conference 2014 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, June 7, at MiracleLand Church, 7427 Martin Luther King Blvd., in Houston. The author will discuss post-traumatic stress disorder and the healing process, and "When Angels Die" offers hope and guidance to those affected by rape and other traumas. MACE, which stands for Ministers Against Child Exploitation, is hosted by Yolanda E. Brown Ministries. "Everyone is Someone's Child" is the theme of this year's event and several seminars and training sessions are planned. De Chavigny also will sell and sign copies of "When Angels Die" at the conference. Like many survivors, it was many years before de Chavigny found the professional therapy that helped her family truly heal. Because she couldn't find a book that offered a guide to rebuilding one's life after a rape, de Chavigny chose to write "When Angels Die."Author Caroline de Chavigny was born in Montreal, Canada, and has a bachelor's degree in business. Through her latest book, "When Angels Die," de Chavigny aims to share how she overcame post-traumatic stress disorder after a vicious criminal attack, and she offers hope to others facing their own transitions from crime victims to survivors.
