The Epidemic

Up to one-million individuals are trafficked against their wills across national borders each year and sold into an underground market of slavery. Approximately 12.3 million children and young people are forcibly exploited, often within the borders of their own nations.

We think we’ve seen it all, but who could be prepared for this? Girls, some so young they could be in kindergarten, are all for sale!”

In recent years there’s been an alarming proliferation in the demand for pornography. Users may mandate increasingly more intensity, more resistance, more violence, and younger victims to satisfy their unquenchable and uncontrollable addictions.

Child porn has become a $20 billion a year industry, and is among the fastest growing businesses on the Internet, with an increase of 1500% in only 9 years. It is estimated 100,000 child pornography Web sites exist on the Internet, presumably leading to the increased rate in abductions and the exploitation of innocent girls and young ladies world-wide.

Children are not only kidnapped from Latin American countries but from many countries such as the Ukraine and even the United States

‘Snuff Porn’ capitalizes on the atrocities committed upon the victim, including vile mutilation and asphyxiation, leading to the victim’s death.

In a Latin American city 430 corpses of girls and young ladies have been discovered, with an approximate 2,000 more missing. Jane Christensen of God 4 Girls is facilitating a Community Counseling Center where those who are being targeted may turn for help and be referred to this Safe House. There an array of specialized services will be administered under the four-fold provisions of God 4 Girls: Scripture, Sustenance, Schooling & Skill.

“They sold girls for wine that they might drink.”
Joel 3:3b NIV

 

Project Safe House

This November, we will take a construction team to an undisclosed Latin American location to prepare a Safe House for these children. Under the ministry heading of Project Safehouse, we are partnering with Jane Christiansen of God 4 Girls to establish through construction projects counseling and protection for the exploited. We will construct both a computer center and a sewing center where girls will be retrained with marketable skills. We are estimating that we may eventually need up to four houses to house the girls.
