There is a huge problem taking place around the world that we usually don't see or hear much about. The problem is Human Trafficking. Each year it is estimated that 2 million woman and children are trafficked all around the world. Last July, Oliga and Trisha had the opportunity to meet 8 ladies who have been rescued and have incredible stories of restoration. It is heartbreaking to hear what is taking place in many countries and pain these woman go through on a daily basis. This problem became heavy on Oliga & Trisha's heart. So this summer they are working with a ministry in Mumbai, India that rescues women & children from the red light district. Mumbai is the second largest city in the world and has over 100,000 women & children in the red light district. The ministry's goal is to put an end to Human Trafficking. The women and children they will be working with have incredible stories of restoration. The trips goal is to gain a larger awareness of what is taking place, see how others can get involved to put an end to human trafficking, and collect stories of restoration. It is impossible to do this by ourselves.
