Partner Organization: Wipe Every Tear

We’ll be working with this organization to minister to girls that have come out of the sex industry. Wipe Every Tear provides housing, food and schooling for women who are transitioning away from the sex industry lifestyle. The ladies are housed in several homes throughout Manila, Philippines and we will spend time with the girls doing various things in the houses to bless and serve them. 2-3 days will be spent in Quezon City, Manila spending time with the Wipe every Tear girls in the ministry homes. We will share meals with them and get hands on training on how to do “Bar Outreach.” We will then travel to Angeles City, Pampanga to spend time each night walking the streets and talking with girls in the bars and showing them the love of Jesus and offering them a way out of their current lifestyle. The last part of the trip will invite the girls we meet in the bars to come with us on a beach vacation, Girls Getaway, at a resort in Puerto Galleria.

This trip is very active with a lot of walking and traveling between provinces so being physical active is a plus. There will be a lot of very late nights in the bars which are dark, loud and sometimes smoke filled. Having a positive, flexible attitude will go very far on this trip.
