Mission & Vision of GMW

Throughout the years Grandmothers, Mothers, Women (GMW) has championed many worthy initiatives, always addressed the impact of guns, drugs and suicide on our children, community and our country.

But our current focus is on the tragic and dire consequences surrounding the proliferation of guns in America. With, so little attention on the elephant in the room (Mental Health).  We are soliciting the involvement/support of all Democratic Leadership in particular and all politicians in general. GMW hopes to join in coalitions with other organizations and Virginians, to help stem the tide of Gun Violence. We also want our local, state, and federal governments to pass legislation to get these guns under control. Especially the banning of Assault Weapons.

GWM.believes that this issue is so important to the future of our children, families and communities at large,that we have developed both a Mission and Vision statements to guide our work. 

Mission

This effort to eradicate gun violence, beginning in the state of Virginia, is a clarion call to all grandmothers mothers and women ages (18 to 120) to use our collective power of our love, God, dollars and our vote to unite with all Democratic leadership, and every American whose soul is weary of the carnage that gun violence has reeked upon our children and our state of Virginia, in particular and America in general.

Vision

The safety of our children is of paramount importance.  The vision of GMW is to solicit the involvement of all grandmothers, mothers and women to re-create an environment in our country where every child can both feel safe and be safe.

The most recent statistics from the Gun Violence Archive reveals there were 648 mass shootings in America last year. Twenty of the incidents happened in Virginia. Mass shootings are  defined as events in which four or more people are shot or killed.

 Mass shootings in Virginia have killed 37 people and wounded 75, In 2022  an average of 1,019 people die and 2,050 were wounded by guns. 

Virginia is the 29th-highest rating of gun violence in the US. And, the 4th highest in mass shootings.

Gmw, what’s going on in Washington,

Gmw, what’s going on in Washington, From our Lame duck President, who appears too no longer has anything to do with The survival of our health and economy of our country.

GMW WE HAVE MUCH WORK 2Do


GMW GOD, God gave us the awesome task of giving birth to every living soul on the face of the earth, when each was born, ‘no long list of instructions followed; the instructions were in our hearts.

Donald Trump has abdicated the responsibilities of the presidency, It appears his sole purpose now, is to create as much havoc as possible for the country, he feels let him down; while using the platform of the Oval Office to accomplish his missions of securing his financial future, while using the power of immunity to help his family and friends, before leaving the oval office.

GMW’s can you see this picture of the Oval Office, the Senate,and the House? ‘ it’s a perfect example of what parenting in America looks like sometimes. Example: In a public Arena, A spoil child is not allowed to have his way, he becomes in raged, yelling, screaming, exhibiting all kinds of bad behavior (The president). The adults in the room, (the house and senate) both Democrats and Republicans, are afraid to discipline the spoiled brat because they have implement laws that won’t allow them to snatch the little brat up, and say to him,†this behavior will not be tolerated or allowed to continue, but, some of the adults in the room has lost their backbones, and is afraid of the brat.

In private spaces (like Court Houses) the brat behaves, because those adults won’t tolerate his behavior; so he brings it to the street (the House, Senate, America) where the adults are so busy fighting each other, they’re not able to come together and control the brat. In the mean-time America is dying.

Grandmothers, mothers and women (GMW),Doesn’t it make you want to just put on your “Mothering Hatâ€, snatch the brat up, tell him go sit down someplace be quiet and still; enough is enough. To the frighten adults around him, (the house and senate and America)†we tell them, “how they should be ashamed of themselves for allowing the child to be in control, when he has surely shown he no longer has the capability of controlling anything, not even himself.

GMW GOD, God gave us the awesome task of giving birth to every living soul on the face of the earth, when each was born, ‘no long list of instructions followed; the instructions were in our hearts.

GMW, God made each of us different. That’s great, because together all of us make up GMW’s in America. In 1 Corinthians 12, states: each of us is unique, but together we make the body complete, and Christ is the head of the body. Jesus gave us two Commandments: to love the Lord and to love others as we love ourselves. (Matthew 22:37-40).

GMW we have work to do: we must step away from the divisive rhetoric going on in our country, not seeing a blue or red, progressive or independent situation; just a country we need of healing, as only we can.do!

?Let’s pray on this in the name of Jesus?Will continue in my next blog.
