Our Story

Over the last two years our hearts have been broken for the forgotten people who work in brothels throughout Asia. It all began as we learned of the trafficking and slavery that is involved with our favorite snack - chocolate. From there our inquiries led us to discover the trafficking that occurs in our own neighborhood. We have spent the last year and a half praying for and visiting women in brothels in Asia.

This experience and God’s prompting gave us a desire to pursue full-time work in this area. After much prayer and contemplation we find ourselves drawn to Cambodia to work with an organization that seeks to rescue and restore women and children who have been abused. Please join us in prayer during these upcoming months as we prepare to step into a new and challenging adventure.

Grace and peace - Becki, Kimberly, and Rachel

  3. I told some of your story to 80 women at a retreat last weekend. There were tears, heads nodding and shaking, and many prayers for you! They were all astounded at the love the Father has given you, and already one gal has written to tell me of how your story prompted her to respond differently to a lady who asked her for help!

  6. May I ask, since I might not get a chance to when you visit, how are you going to share the gospel with people in Cambodia? And for my own understanding of your mission, what does the gospel mean to you? I would be interested to learn more of your Scriptural and theological support for what you would be doing.
