Home of Hope


The Home of Hope is a home for women who have survived human trafficking. These women are often repatriated to Moldova and have are left with no options and no future. The trauma of the slavery alone has left many of them mentally unstable. There is a stigma in Moldova of women who have returned from such a lifestyle and many of them are rejected by family and friends. Some have children, some have HIV and all of them need Jesus.

The Home of Hope offers just that: Hope. This is a place of safety, recovery, medical care and job training. The women are offered a place for one to two years and are gently loved by workers and friends with the love of Jesus Christ.

I am excited and blessed to be a part of this home. It has been in the making for five years and in finally coming to fruition. Please pray for us at the Home of Hope, for the American and Moldovan workers and for the women.
