Rescuing the Broken. Bringing them Home.

CASSIDY had run from her trafficker but didn’t know where to go next and was terrified he would find her soon. Stacy, our Director of Outreach, flew on a small plane to Mississippi to get her and transport her to safety. Then, Cassidy balked. She was scared of her trafficker, but she was equally terrified of getting on a little plane to start a new life with strangers different from anything she had experienced before. Stacy comforted her and coaxed her into trust. She held her hand over the next day and a half and didn’t leave her side until Cassidy was safely in Georgia in a quality aftercare program. Cassidy is now healing and thriving.

JAZZ had been abused her entire life. Every single man she’d ever known had abused her since she was a girl. When Path2Hope found her, she was broken, hurting, struggling with alcohol, and working as an escort. We found Jazz and began coaching and comforting her. As trust grew, Jazz accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior, left “the life” behind, and was baptized. She is now growing in the Lord, healing, and is even working toward owning her own business.

Josephine was working in a strip club, depressed and overrun with anxiety, when a group of Path2Hope’s volunteer ladies found her. This particular Friday night, Path2Hope’s team was visiting a club on the east side of Atlanta. Josephine was walking through the backstage area and heard Path2Hope’s ladies praying with two other strippers and said, “I need prayer too!” We prayed with Josephine and began discipling her. Soon after, Josephine made the decision to follow the Lord, and we were privileged to baptize her! She now works in the beauty care industry and has become a dedicated reader of Scripture. She reports that she is now free of depression and anxiety, and she feels strong and stable. She also says she feels much lighter, as if great loads have been lifted off of her!

85% of sexually exploited women enter the sex industry through coercion. 95% were sexually abused at home at an early age and have never known what it is to be in a loving, safe environment in which to grow and live. These women are lost, both socially and spiritually, and often have known a certain brokenness very few people outside “the game” experience.

Knowing God’s heart for women such as these, Path2Hope launched a special project called Redeeming Hope dedicated to finding these hurting women and ushering them into a new life filled with God’s love. PATH2HOPE IS THE ONLY MINISTRY IN METRO ATLANTA THAT ACTIVELY SEARCHES FOR UNKNOWN TRAFFICKING VICTIMS OR OTHER EXPLOITED WOMEN.

At Redeeming Hope, we search for the women society would like to ignore and forget. When trafficking is discovered, we partner with law enforcement to rescue the victim. In all cases, we work to connect them to God’s love and any other resources they might need. Those which the World says are lost forever, we say are just one call away from a new beginning.
