Several years ago shortly after we began the ministry to the girls on the streets, a young girl named Rachel came to us seeking refuge. Someone had seen her at a mental hospital with a male friend. They had given Rachel and her friend the number and address of the church. The male friend brought Rachel to us to see if we could help her. We asked one of the ladies from our church to take her in to her home; which she did.
However, we were not equipped at that time to provide Rachel with the type of counseling and guidance that she needed. After a few days she left. She returned to her male friend and the streets. Just several short weeks later we heard on the radio that a girl named Rachel had been raped and murder. We found out it was our Rachel, raped, murdered, left alone, abandoned, and thrown-away like some unwanted trash.
Rachel is gone, lost forever in death, but there are hundreds and thousands of Rachels praying to be rescued. Isn’t it time for the church to rescue them from their life of slavery and prostitution? Look around and you will see the walking dead among you, waiting for the message of hope and a new life. We believe the Lord is calling the church to step up. He is saying it is time for the church to say “enough, we will no longer tolerate human trafficking and life of slavery to prostitution.” Through your prayers and financial support you can help us bring the message, and new life.

One of the issues that we have faced over the past several years is where to send the girls should they wish to be rescued from their traffickers.
Our vision is to purchase property that would allow us to offer a home for these victims, while at the same time provide them with healing, and training for a new life.
Not everyone is called to minister to those who are victims of Human Trafficking. However, everyone is called to pray. We are asking for your prayer covering over this ministry. We know without your prayers we are unable to move forward. Additionally, we need financial support. We must raise the funds to purchase the property and to meet the monthly expense for the ministry. A one-time gift would benefit the girls greatly, and a monthly gift would allow us to expand.
Please pray and ask God what he would want you to contribute to Forgotten Children, Inc..

Through three years of praying and searching for the right property to build Rachel’s House, God has opened the doors of opportunity for us to purchase just such a place.
On this property we will have the ability to house five girls, and a room mother.
The propriety is vacant and is fully equipped to accommodate 50-90 girls. We need your prayers and financial support as we step out in faith and purchase the building.
You can help us make this vision a reality! |
