There was a bridal shower held at the Lincoln County Child Advocacy Center on Friday. While on the surface this shower may have seemed like a regular run-of-the-mill affair, it was far from that. This shower was held to honor a young woman whom after suffering indecencies at the hands of a trusted family friend was able to trust a man enough to marry him.
Grace, not her real name, found herself at the door of the child advocacy center when she was 14. Her abuser was a trusted member of the family â someone who came over to her house for dinners and birthday parties.
