Invest in Her Journey
Facilitating the holistic transformation of women in the context of prostitution through the love of Jesus since 2012!​
​
At End Slavery Ecuador, our mission is to see women like Elizabeth* who work in prostitution restored and their communities transformed by sharing the love of Jesus in holistic ways. We call her and the over 300 women we serve “Amadas”—meaning “beloved” in Spanish—because, before we do anything else, we want them to know they are deeply loved by God.
We seek to reflect this love by walking alongside these beloved women through weekly outreach, biweekly discipleship, annual events, and connecting them with resources and other local organizations. Together, these efforts create a pathway toward restoration, dignity and lasting transformation for these women and their communities.
​
That's where you come in. Read on to meet Elizabeth and learn how you can invest in her journey and those of women like her!
Elizabeth's Story
When Elizabeth* was just 17 years old, she left home. Home meant having a roof over her head and food on the table—but it also meant living with violence and the constant threat of abuse from her stepfather. Leaving was terrifying, but staying wasn't an option.
As Elizabeth was looking for work, one of her friends introduced her to prostitution. It wasn't the life she wanted, but it was the only way she knew to survive. Now, in her 60s, Elizabeth is still caught in that cycle. She has left prostitution several times over the years when other jobs became available, but each time those opportunities disappeared, she returned to prostitution as a means to survive.
However, her story doesn’t end there.
More than six years ago, our team met Elizabeth through our outreach program. Week after week, year after year, we kept showing up. We listened, prayed, and slowly built a relationship of trust. Then, four months ago, Elizabeth joined our discipleship program – her first step in the Personal Development Plan.
Now, she's beginning to discover that her past does not define her—Jesus does.
​
This is where you come in.
Our goal is to raise $7,000 by August 2 so we can continue walking alongside Elizabeth and women like her. Together, we can help write the next chapter of stories marked not by survival, but by the transforming love of Jesus.
​​
AND thanks to one generous ministry partner, every gift up to $1,000 will be matched, doubling your impact!
Will you give today to provide Elizabeth and women like her with a safe place, the truth of who Jesus is, and practical support for the future?​
