Ms Rebecca Shank Shares Her Testimony About "The Village"

Ms Rebecca Shank and I met a few years ago at our church, New Life Providence in Va.Beach, Va. Little did I know the challenges she was facing with epilepsy. Please read the "testimony" written by her:

To All the Above Addresses:

I have known Lowell Evans, Uncle Lowell, for about three years now. He spoke many times at church about a young boy with epilepsy, and I never had the courage to speak with him. One service on a Saturday night I finally approached and told him of my seizures and how I got them due to hitting my head my freshman year of college. For months he wanted to share this with our men's ministry at New Life Providence Church, but I would not let him at all. I finally let him share the information and a car was donated to me to drive around because for awhile I had to walk to and from school, work, and other places. He also wrote a book titled "The Village" which relates to me so much, that I keep it with me wherever I go just for encouragement. He is an awesome servant of the Lord, and if it was not for the phrase "I may have epilepsy, but it does not have me", I would not be able to worship the Lord through dance. Thanks for your time and I wish you all a Blessed Resurrection week.

God Bless,
Rebecca  L. Shank

TEAM EPILEPSY CREATES "THE VILLAGE BOOK GIVE AWAY"!

TEAM EPILEPSY SEE THE NEED FOR "THE VILLAGE" TO BE KNOWN!


In the month of March 2012, the Mediciglobal Patient and Recruitment Firm created along with "Team Epilepsy", "The Village Book Give Away" contest! This contest was created after the leaders of  Mediciglobal and Team Epilepsy learned about Mr. Evans and his novel, "The Village". The novel was written to increase epilepsy awareness in the community.

After explaining to Mr. Nick Halkitis of Mediciglobal "The Village" and it's main character, "Mr. Kevin Bolden," Mr. Evans was informed about the 4 week "nationwide contest" on Facebook under Team Epilepsy! Each week Team Epilepsy would create a new question about "epilepsy" and the top 10 answers to the question would receive a free copy of "The Village!" One week over 700 responses were received in one (1) day! This contest has created a great relationship between Mediciglobal and "The Village, for Epilepsy Awareness!" CEO and Founder of Mediciglobal, Liz Moench along with Alicia Carango, Healthcare Communications Developer all stayed in contact with the author for the success of the project.

The novel written by Lowell Evans was also used as the "prize" for the Summer Stroll presented by Mediciglobal!

Lowell G.Evans Speaks at The Camel Restaurant

 On March 31, 2012, Mr. Paul Nelson Pace had his annual "Epilepsy Fundraiser Event" at The Camel Restaurant in Richmond, Va. The event went great and the "guest speaker" was Mr. Lowell G.Evans, author of "The Village."

Mr. Pace is very familiar with epilepsy and requested Mr. Evans to come once again to speak at his event. Mr. Evans made his famous statement to the many people dealing with epilepsy, "I may have epilepsy, but epilepsy does not have me."

Mr. Evans was able to present his novel,"The Village" and speak about the character he created to represent epilepsy, "Mr. Kevin Bolden." The name Kevin Bolden is becoming well known across the country with epilepsy. Mr. Evans presented Mr. Pace a copy of the novel for his dedication to "Epilepsy Awareness."

In the Paper and at Barnes and Noble

An article was published in the Virginia Beach Beacon section of the Virginian-Pilot newspaper on May 19 about me and the book The Village.  Of course epilepsy is not a disease.  It is a neurological disorder.  Check our the article:
