Even though I've been waiting to go to Thailand since like LAST MAY, it is still crazy to me that is less than 2 weeks away.
We're have two contacts there. I've heard both of the founders speak about their organizations. Their passion is incredible and unmatched by many. Their desire for the Lord to move through their organizations is awe-inspiring. Both of these organizations are in Thailand, rescuing girls and giving them hope.
The first organization is called The Exodus Road. If you want to check out their website, click the link. Or, if you want to read what I've written about them, click here. Their organization is a covert-ops group that goes into brothels to rescue young girls. But they don't just rescue them, they get the authorities involved and are able to arrest the pimps who run these brothels. This is a huge part that most people don't think about; if we want to protect these girls, we have to put people that put them to work behind bars.
The second organization is called NightLight International. Several months ago, I listened to Annie Dieselberg speak about her organization. It was moving. She has this way about her that you know that she is doing this because the Lord is with her. Her organization is different than many. NightLight brings hope to women by going in the bars and talking to them. When they are ready to leave, the organization picks them up and brings them to their safe house. NIghtLight then provides these women with a job, so they can support themselves. But it doesn't stop there, they have a church for the women, classes they can take, and sweet fellowship with other women.
I can't wait to go and be a part of this life-changing experience. I can't wait to see how God moves. And I certainly cannot wait to be on this adventure!
