Sawadee!
We currently live in Bangkok, Thailand. We are working with Samaritan Creations, a Thai foundation committed to serving and discipling women and children whom have been trapped in the sex industry. By the grace and love of God, Samaritan Creations exists to rescue, restore, and empower women ensnared by the sex trade in Thailand. We visited this ministry in the fall of 2017, and we were captivated by all the ways we saw Christ transforming lives through SC. We've been back in Bangkok serving with Samaritan Creations for about two years. We are filled with thankfulness for the Lord's provision through it all.
Samaritan Creations was founded in 2010, and many women have been transformed through God's work here! The staff regularly visit women in the red light districts to build trusting relationships and offer hope. Samaritan Creations provides an opportunity for women to leave the sex industry and attend a one year restorative program.
This restorative program takes a holistic approach through three phases. During the first phase, the students are given hope and restoration as they participate in trauma healing sessions, receive counseling, and learn about Jesus. Interactive lessons are taught on topics such as worldview, family systems, sexual abuse, addiction, health, conflict management, self worth, and maintaining life-long freedom. The program provides individualized vocational training during the second phase. The purpose of the third phase is to equip and empower the students for their lives through job readiness, professionalism, mentorship, and internships.
