- Dirty cubicles the size of a small closet.
- Infants and small children living under their mother’s bed while she “works” each night.
- Lies and empty promises of education or good paying jobs in far away cities to impoverished families with too many mouths to feed.
- Bodies bruised and battered because a young woman resists her introduction to life in the brothels.
- Sexually transmitted diseases, lost childhood, unwanted pregnancies, fear reflected in haunted facial expressions.
- The light of hope and dignity snuffed out of a young girl’s eyes as she accepts her fate.
These are the images that have haunted my heart since I first learned about the plight of women and young girls who have fallen into the trap of sex traffickers.
Because of these images, I began to pray. I knew I had to do whatever I could do to help and I wanted God to guide my efforts.
"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do."
~Edward Everett Hale~
Several years later, my novel, Daughter of Scarlet was in print and I planned to use the profits from the book to aid organizations which hekp trafficking victims. Click to read a sample chapter of Daughter of Scarlet and to see the missions organizations I support.
God keeps bringing more ideas about how I can use what I have in my hands to raise money for missions, like the latest endeavor, Dolls 4 Missions. These are various types of dolls representing the young women and girls who are enslaved in sex trafficking from all over the world - reminding us to pray for them as well as the missions organizations involved in helping them.
So feel free to browse my site so see what I've been up to for missions. I hope you'll consider purchasing Daughter of Scarlet or a doll to join the fight to aid human trafficking victims.
