OrrinChick2882 is on a distinguished road
Unhappy Please Help Me!!!!

I was born in Orrin. In 1981, a "religious" group bought the property across the street from my house. By the mid 80's, they had developed a pretty sick little cult. My grandparents never bought into their crap, but for some reason they targeted me(age 4 or 5 at the time), and my family. They harrassed us many times, saying we were evil for hanging undergarments on the clothesline where they could be seen & other stupid stuff. But the reason I'm posting this, and the thing that to this day messes with my head so bad is that they claimed I had been abducted from their orphanage by my mother, and placed with my grandparents so that I wouldn't be found. This is pure BS, but I NEED to know why! If anyone has any info on this group, or pics of their properties in Orrin, please, share them with me. This has haunted me for nearly 20 years, and I desperately need some peace of mind.

Well I was young when this happened in Orrin. I'll check with my parents on more details. All I remember is that the guy head of the cult was called Father X. They were real frickin' strange from what I was told. I have relatives who live outside of Orrin. I'll call somebody today and see if I can get you some more info.

OrrinChick:

I grew up in Rugby. I would be a lot older than you. Never heard of something like this happening in my old neck of the woods. When I think of Orrin, I think of German Catholics, as there were many in the area.

Did a little reasearch and came up with this website:

Catholic Culture : Library : Tridentine Rite Conference and Its Schismatic Cousins, The (Part 1) (broken link)

Not sure it will be helpful and it is a bit of reading. From what I read, its that old story over again it seems. People don't like change, so some will go to any lengths to keep what is familiar to them. The information seems to be about the right timeframe, so it may be what you experienced.

Hope it helps and puts some of your concerns to rest.

Good Luck!!

well, i asked my parents what they knew. They didnt know a whole lot more than I did. If its any consolation but Father X is in prison in Canada. There were a few women considered nuns in their cult. One's name was Sister RainBarrell. Real quokeee people.

I remember Rainbarrel. I think my sister & I may have given her that lovely name. Little kids call it like they see it. Thanx again.

Your post had me curious...I did some googling and found this....scroll down to the 3rd story..

k, the link didn't work. Just google "Father X goes to Orrin", and an article on a site called Zip Beep should come up. Very creepy!!
