Pray for HOPE!

Hi all!

I just checked my friend Krista's blog. If you have been following along with me for a while, you will remember that she is living in Germany right now with her husband and two adorable kids! She and her sweet hubby are missionaries and Krista has a heart for broken women- specifically women involved in prostitution.

Every Wednesday night, she goes down to the brothels in Hamburg and speaks life into these women's lives. This week she met a young lady she calls Hope. This woman has been a victim of human trafficking and was forced to start prostituting herself two weeks ago.

I urge you to go here and read the full story.

You are all amazing. Thank you for joining us in prayer. Oh, and partialemptynester- it was a "Protestant Church." : )

OMGosh, thanks for clearing that whole prostitute/protestant thing up for me!! I loved her heart for asking, bc I thought she was being humble, like, "is there somewhere that cares about me, regardless of what I do", but the protestant thing makes much more sense! Either way, I've absolutely fallen in love with Krysta and her family for obeying God's call regardless of where it takes them! Thanks for posting!!!
