getting to know the girls who are getting to know Jesus

every friday night for the past 6 weeks a team of us have been going to a smaller red light district and have had a focus of talking to the girls in the windows there. At the beginning of our time, the girls seemed reluctant to let us in if we got in at all. at the end of the 6 weeks, they were coming up to us or opening their doors for us to come in and we no longer had to initiate smiling or waving.. they would wave or smile first! we have seen incredible breakthrough with their response towards us simply wanting to talk and spend time with them.

Prayer and worship have been the forefront of seeing change in this place as well as burning hearts for Christs love to reign in this place!

On Friday night, 3 teams of 2 people went out to the less than 20 windows to talk to the girls. i felt to stay back and pray because i was so overwhelmed with what God has been doing here in Amsterdam that i needed to intercede for Gods heart for the area. We had an intense prayer time.

When the teams came back, none of us were expecting one of the teams to tell us that 2 of the girls they were talking to accepted Jesus as their Saviour! the best part of it all was we were all apart of it. its the same girls that all of us have talked to, or smiled at or prayed for. we know their faces.. we know their names.. we have prayed for them over and over again. it makes my heart leap for joy to see their hearts want something more. they want to get out of the windows.

i think i mentioned last week to keep the girls in the windows in your prayers because they want to leave the windows but need to stay because of financial reasons.. those girls i was talking about were the ones i visited last week that accepted Christ this week!

there is a bible study specifically for the girls in the windows that is open for them to attend as well as for them to do jewelry making.. both set up for them specifically by the missionaries working in the red light district.

continue to keep these girls in your prayers... God is doing something radically here and its obvious!
