Bring the Hope of Homecoming to Your Church

This season, invite your congregation to help create pathways to freedom, hope, and lasting restoration for survivors of sexual exploitation around the world.

Project Rescue has prepared free resources to help you share this work during a service, in a small group, through your church bulletin, or across your digital channels.

Christmas reminds us that God came near.

Jesus promised, “I will come back and take you to be with me” (John 14:3). He is Immanuel—God with us (Matthew 1:23). And like the father in Luke 15, He runs to meet us while we are still far away.

That homecoming is at the heart of everything we do.

Project Rescue works to prevent exploitation before it happens, intervene where women and children are trapped, and walk alongside survivors as they experience healing, restoration, and hope for a brighter tomorrow.

The Heart of Homecoming

Meet Dana

“All I know is God can do impossible things.”

Dana’s story shows the life-changing impact of compassionate, long-term care. After years of exploitation and separation from her family, she found safety, practical support, renewed faith, and a path to freedom through Project Rescue—and, ultimately, the reunion she had long prayed for.

Dana’s story is one of homecoming—but many women and children are still waiting to be found.

Your church can help carry the hope of restoration to them.

Her Story

This appeal is not simply about asking your congregation to give. It is an invitation to help them understand, pray, and respond.

Your church can:

Share Dana’s story during a service, class, or small-group gathering.
Pray together for survivors and those still experiencing exploitation.
Introduce your congregation to the work of Project Rescue around the world.
Use the provided graphics and videos across your church’s digital channels.
Invite those who feel led to make a special Christmas gift.

Whether you dedicate several minutes during a service or simply share a resource with your congregation, your voice can help more people understand the realities of exploitation—and discover how God is bringing hope and restoration.
