#FridayNightOutreach We have a team going out tonight. Keep them and the track in your prayers! #streetoutreach #pray #stopexploitation #losangeles

Today is a day to celebrate love. Love is beautiful when it’s genuine, sacrificial, intentional, and generous. But we also acknowledge that it can be a painful day because we’ve seen “love” used to manipulate, abuse, and exploit vulnerable people. We know that some pimps use “love,” along with violence, to groom girls for the game. We see the johns lining up every Friday night to buy sex. We are grieved by this warped and twisted “love,” knowing love was never meant to inflict pain. We care for all trapped in the cycle of sexual exploitation. We desire to speak the truth of their innate worth as image-bearers of our God. Love is central to AHM’s mission. Motivated by Christ’s love and ministry that physically and spiritually cared for the least of society, AHM loves by going to the sexually exploited, consistently and unconditionally, offering gifts, friendship, prayer, and help. As people who have been radically transformed by Christ’s redeeming love, we want those we meet on the track to know and believe they are loved by God and by us and that God desires “to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes” (Isaiah 61:3). We invite you to celebrate this Valentine’s Day by donating to our mission to love until the last lock breaks and sharing with us below what love is to you! #valentinesday #genuinelove #redemption #untilthelastlockbreaks #stopexploitation

Yesterday, we received a donation of 150 gift bags from Eagle Rock Baptist Church. We want to take a moment to say, THANK YOU! We are so grateful for and so blessed and humbled by your generosity. These gift bags will bless so many during outreaches. If you and your community group or church are looking for ways to serve your neighbors, throwing a gift bag packing party is a fun way to get involved while fellowshipping with one another! Please email us at afterhoursministry@gmail.com, and we will gladly provide a list of items needed for the bags. We also accept financial donations as well 😊 #thankyou #donation #loveyourneighbor #serveyourcommunity

#StoriesfromtheTrack It was very cold last Friday night; but despite the temperature, there were still girls out. We pulled over soon after we got on the track to talk to a woman. As we were walking back to the car, we met *Daisy, such a sweet face. She took a goody bag, but refused prayer. “I can’t. I’m sinning.” We told her Jesus doesn’t see her like that, but she walked away. Further down the track, we met *Lucy. She seemed so young. She opened up quickly and told us she has no one—“My family doesn’t claim me.” She’s been on the street since she was a kid. She said she’s stressed. We prayed with her. We told her we care about her and want to help her. We told her she can call our hotline for anything at anytime. Before she left, we reminded her that she’s strong. “I am strong.” Keep these precious women in your prayers. Pray the Holy Spirit stirs in their hearts, loves and comforts them, and reminds them to contact our hotline. *Pseudonyms used for their protection.

#FridayNightOutreach We have a team going to the track tonight. The Lord has already gone before us, preparing the hearts of each individual we’ll encounter. We’d like you to pray with us that the Holy Spirit will lead us to all who need love and comfort on the track tonight. And, please pray for protection over the sexually exploited women we’ll meet. #endsextrafficking #pray #streetoutreach #losangeles

We are dedicated to this mission the Lord has set before us: to build relationships with men and women involved in prostitution in LA; to love until the last lock breaks. Like William Wilberforce, we are incurable fanatics. Raise your hand if you’re an incurable fanatic, too! #endsextrafficking #modernslavery #liveintentionally #losangeles

Check your email, we sent our first newsletter of 2019! Did you get it? Let us know if you did below! Want to be added to the list? DM your name and email, and we’ll add ya!

In a 3 day sting across Cali Operation Reclaim & Rebuild saw 339 arrests. Plus 50 human trafficking victims were rescued! It’s awesome that law enforcement is now understanding that we need to be arresting the pimps and jons instead of the working women.

Great things have been done & great things are to come as we forge ahead💥
