Rescuing Girls In The Sex Trade: Kenny Sacht: Part One

[00:00:00] Coming up next on the Wounds of the Faithful podcast.

[00:00:04] I saw these girls. There are 240 bars and over 12, 000 girls in Angela City, Philippines.

[00:00:12] So these are adult women, they're supposed to be, they can be minors, but they're supposed to be 18 years of age. Sex trafficking is illegal in the Philippines, and yet It's everywhere. On this street alone, this area, some bars have hundreds of these girls in them.

[00:00:29] So we go into the bars and Filipinos cannot go into the bars in the Philippines. Only foreigners can go in. And and that's why we do mission trips. We need Americans. We need foreigners. No matter what country you're from Canada, anywhere in Europe, all over the world.

[00:00:47] We get people coming and then we do these mission trips, and then we do teams and we get our Filipino staff with you, and we go into the bars and. And it's the foreigner it's they're the ticket to get in the bars. We go in we build [00:01:00] relationships you know during the week we feed meals. And so we have a very good reputation and God has just covered us.

[00:01:07] God has just been so gracious to us.
