Hey kiddos! It’s Well Done Wednesday! The purpose of this blog series is to highlight good people doing good things for good reasons. Last week, I told you guys about Rescue Her, and you can read my post about it here or you can go straight to their website here.

Today, the organization I want you to check out is Hookers for Jesus. I know. I was a little confused at first too. This organization in Las Vegas was founded in 2005 by Annie Lobert, a former prostitute and drug addict who desperately yearned for money, nice things, revenge against men, but ultimately – love. She quickly fell into a downward 11-year spiral of darkness, searching for something – SOMEONE to save her. After hitting rock bottom, she knew that Jesus was the only option she had left. You can read her full testimony here. Today, she’s carrying out the calling on her life to go back to the strip where she became a slave to darkness, and share God’s love with the girls who are still enslaved.

She’s doing this through numerous projects:

Destiny House| this is a transitional house for teens/women who are trying to get out of their old lifestyles of prostitution and drugs without resorting to homelessness. At the moment, they are looking for a larger location for this house.

Ladies of Destiny| this is a support group for women who’ve been/still are working in this industry. There are weekly meetings for Ladies of Destiny and there’s sure to be fun, friendship and lots of food! Most of you reading this are probably not located in Las Vegas, but everybody knows somebody somewhere, so I still encourage you to check it out! For more information, click the link.

KISS| Keeping Innocent Sisters Safe works with local jail/prison ministries. Their outreaches “have included personal visitation, mentoring, Bible studies, cultural events, provision of literature for libraries, all designed to improve the quality of life behind bars.” The ministry also helps underage prostitutes, and aids the women incarcerated in making the transition into their normal lives.

Saturday Night Love| SNL is an outreach to the ladies working on the Las Vegas strip as prostitutes or human trafficking victims. This is simply to let each lady know that they’re precious, loved and valued by their community. This ministry has turned into “an incredible outpouring of love with gift bags of luxury bath items, perfume, makeup and Bibles with coffee & restaurant gift cards”.

This is a growing ministry and they rely heavily on your donations and support. If you’re looking for a good cause to give to, I encourage you to consider this one.
