No one should have to face the life of suffering that these children endure. |
Become a part of rescuing and restoring those who have endured the unthinkable.
Addiction and poverty are at the root of human trafficking. Addiction drives poverty, poverty drives desperation, and desperation leads to unthinkable crime. 88% of children are trafficked by their families. That is why we not only rescue those being trafficked, but we address the problem from the source by running a drug rehab and discipleship within the local communities. Because when people encounter the love of Jesus, they receive true healing and restoration.

RESCUE STORIES
Trafficked GirlsOur dad died of cirrhosis when we were babies. Our mom, who had no education and had suffered abuse her whole life, immediately started renting us to men. We were sexually abused from the time we were babies. Nicole and the Village Rescue found us, saved us, and have given us a home where we can heal.

Rehabbed BoyI was abandoned by my father and mother, and left to work the streets. I became a meth addict. When I was 10 years old, the local sheriff caught me. But instead of keeping me at the police station, the sheriff called the Village Rescue and asked if I could go to the Village Rehab. They took me in, got me clean, and now I have a family at the Village Children’s Home.

Rehabbed ManFor most of my life I was enslaved by alcohol. Eventually, I lost everything... even the desire to get up in the morning. But I came to the Village Rehab, where I learned God has a purpose for my life. Jesus gave me life when I should have died. He used the men at the Village Rehab and today, I am a new person.

WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
|
People all over Mexico are being trafficked and abused. They are victims of the drug trade and alcoholism, and the poor, marginalized descendants of the indigenous are especially vulnerable and unreached by discipleship.
We have been relentlessly serving this community since the 1980s. We rescue hundreds of children from human trafficking. We have cared for over 750 children since 2004. We place them in a loving home, protecting, educating, and reintegrating them into society as adults. We rehabilitate hundreds of men and boys from substance abuse to stop the abusive cycle. We go to the poor and marginalized, discipling through house churches and street ministries. |
Because when we do what it takes to rescue and restore children who have been trafficked, we can restore a nation.

We know how heartbreaking it is to feel helpless in the face of injustice.
“Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;
maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.”
Psalm 82:3
maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.”
Psalm 82:3
Together, we can rescue and restore trafficked children.As believers in Jesus, our hearts break at the injustices around us. But it can be so hard to know how to make a tangible impact - how to not only rescue children who have been borne into a life of sex slavery, but to care for them and love them to restoration and healing.
Let us be your hands and feet. We have connections, favor with the authorities, private detectives, and trauma counselors. What we need are the finances to fund rescues, provide education, and pay for doctor’s visits. Without the generosity of the church, our mission is impossible. |
