What is sex slavery?

Sex slavery is defined as when people use other people for sex.  Just like any type of slavery, the task that they order the other person to do-- the "slave" is not willing to do it.  It is a form of abuse.  Either the slave is persuaded or forced to go on with it.  Some people are sold into the business because of debt problems or have no where else to go.  They can catch many diseases such as HIV/AIDS because many have unprotected sex and some are drugged (sharing needles) to keep them dependent on their bosses.

Humans are not objects and should NOT be used just for physical sex.  We all have a purpose in life and it IS NOT to be someone else's object.

There are children (boys, girls), men and women sex slaves in the world.  These people have their lives ripped away from them. 

Two children are sold every minute.

Thank you for your question. Let us stop this injustice together.

Did you know our fellowship was mentioned in the Statesmen, our school newspaper? Praise God! People will continue to learn about sex slavery and end it! People will learn more about God and Jesus' love for us!

Hey all,

This week we’re going to be looking at an important aspect of Christianity: evangelism. God calls us all to evangelize, to spread the Good News to peoples of all nations. However, how do we evangelize a world that is so based in atheistic cynicism? How do we reach a world that seems to completely reject the Word in favor of scientific reason? Come this Thursday to really learn what evangelism in the modern world looks like!

In addition, Lighthouse Church will be holding an international dinner this Friday Mar 9th. There is limited room available so if you are interested, come sign up. More information will be given tomorrow during the meeting.
