As of May 2013, we have now been bringing God’s love to women in the sex industry for one year! Truly it has been a glorious year of favor, answered prayers, divine connections, and joy for those of us who have prayed for this ministry for many years. A few Saturdays ago, we had a party to honor and rejoice with those who have been involved from the beginning. It was a joyous time of recalling all that the Lord has done and how far the new ministry has come. Here are a few highlights:
- Sharing the Gospel with many women who come from a Buddhist background (in the massage parlors)
- Hearing two ladies say that although they are propositioned constantly, they refuse to provide sexual favors to customers
- Hearing one woman say that because of us, she knows she has friends in America
- Watching one of our girls get baptized on Easter Sunday
- Being taken out to dinner by two owners of massage parlors
- Training five new team members in the past few months
- Adopting several new massage parlors
- Adopting four strip clubs as of March 20, 2014, the first day of spring. (The verse from which we got our name says that the winter is over and spring has come.)
- Bouncer: “So you want to just come in here, give gifts to our dancers and tell them they’re loved?! Yeah, you can do that anytime!!”
- Customer: “The Church is in the strip club?!”
- Giving a female bouncer a rose. Later she emphatically declared that she would be the one to lead us to the dressing rooms.
