Coasters

This Sunday at church our message was about sex trafficking and how we can help.

The first thing is to keep our families strong. That way our children won't be mislead into this horrible way of life and our husbands and sons won't increase the growing "want" of this type of sin.

The second thing we need to do is to break free from the stigma of judgement in our churches. Everyone needs a safe place to be at sometime in their life and that is what the church needs to be to everyone ALL THE TIME. It is not our place to judge people, but to love them and help them to see the love of Jesus, through us.

The third thing we need to do is to plug into an organization that fights sex trafficking. The two who were at our church this Sunday were "Redeemed Ministries" found at www.redeemedministries.com and "Freedom Place" found at www.arrow.org.

Of course there is one more thing that EVERYONE can do...the MOST IMPORTANT thing...pray. Please pray for the women who are sex slaves, pray for the men to are pimping them out, pray for the mean and women who are buying these people. Pray, pray, pray!

In support of Redeemed Ministries, I bought these coasters that were handcrafted by women formerly exploited in the commercial sex industry or by human trafficking. Aren't they beautiful!
