Vision For Women

Safe House

In a small town in Romania, Vision Beyond Borders has set up a safe house where women and girls who are vulnerable to trafficking are cared for in a Christian environment and taught the basics of building a life. The home serves orphaned girls who have aged out of the government system, girls who have been abused by family members, widows who have nowhere to go, and women who have escaped abusive relationships where their spouse or partner was likely to traffick them. Our ultimate goal with this safe house currently is to prevent those who are most at risk of being trafficked from ever becoming enslaved at all by teaching them their value in Jesus Christ and giving them the resources they need to succeed in life. Over the period of 1 to 2 years, women and girls are taught necessary life skills, given safe job opportunities, counselled, and loved on by Christian staff. The safe house also has an outreach program that seeks to practically serve those in need in the community and teach the women and girls living in the home the ways of Christ by demonstrating the Gospel of Jesus through service to others

India

The brothels in India are overflowing with women and children trapped in untenable situations.

Many are sold into work by a brother, aunt, or even a parent. When they first arrive, they

are beaten and raped as prisoners. Once broken, they have more freedom but live in fear.

Each precious soul is caught in a seemingly unending hell. Many young girls cut their

arms, and scars on some of these young girls show cuts on their necks where they have tried to commit suicide. Children are born in brothels and live in the squalor of dirt and broken lives. Some are fortunate and escape; some are destined to be abused one day or even become a pimp.

Vision For Women cares deeply about the life of every ONE girl, ONE woman, and ONE child. In one

Red-Light District, the Gospel is being shared, Bibles provided, sewing classes thrive, and

women and children are being helped out of the brothels to safety and a new life. We are

supporting the work of this vibrant ministry's work and the safe home in another country where many of these girls are housed. We pray that one day, we shall be able to support a new

safehouse in Mumbai - a light of Christ shining amid the darkness.

While our focus is mainly international work, Vision Beyond Borders is also seeking to fight human trafficking at home. By hosting conferences, visiting with community businesses that are likely to come into contact with trafficking situations, and sharing at churches, our goal is to spread awareness of the issue and unite the community in fighting trafficking in our own country. Our prayer is that we would be able to serve those who want to know more about how they can be involved in the United States by putting them in touch with a number of Christian organizations that are actively doing anti-trafficking work in the United States. We pray that many would join the fight against trafficking in our own country.
