Announcer: ON THIS SPECIAL
EPISODE OF LIFE TODAY.
>> I HAD NO IDEA
HOW HORRIBLE IT WAS
UNTIL I WAS CONFRONTED
WITH IT FACE TO FACE.
WHAT A BIG
BUSINESS IT IS
AND HOW PROFITABLE IT IS
FOR ALL THESE EVIL PEOPLE
THAT SEE NOTHING IN TAKING
A PRECIOUS CHILD'S LIFE
AND DESTROYING IT
BECAUSE THEY CAN MAKE
SOME MONEY OFF OF THEM.
Announcer: NEXT!
♪
James: BETTY AND I WELCOME YOU
TO LIFE TODAY.
I'M JAMES ROBISON.
WE'RE TALKING TO YOU
ABOUT SOMETHING THAT I DON'T
QUESTION FOR A MOMENT
THAT EVERY ONE OF YOU
WHO ARE WATCHING US
WILL CARE DEEPLY ABOUT.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE ISSUE
THAT WE'RE REALLY TALKING ABOUT,
BETTY, IS SO HARD TO BELIEVE
AND IMAGINE AND FATHOM.
YOU THINK, WELL, HOW CAN THIS...
ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, HOW CAN
SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN?
WHAT I'M TALKING TO YOU ABOUT,
SO YOU REALLY UNDERSTAND
IS IF YOU CAN IMAGINE
THE LITTLE CHILDREN
WHEREVER YOU LIVE,
AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND
OF COMMUNITY YOU'RE IN.
WHERE BETTY AND I LIVE,
THERE ARE A LOT OF FAMILIES
WITH SMALL CHILDREN
AND THEY PLAY IN THE STREET
QUITE OFTEN.
I DRIVE BY AND I ALWAYS
GREET THEM, AND DRIVE SLOWLY
TO BE SURE WE DON'T HURT
ANY OF THEM.
WE HAVE AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
NOT FAR FROM WHERE WE LIVE,
AND DURING SCHOOL TIMES
THERE IS ALWAYS THE SPEED LIMITS
AND THE SPEED BUMPS
AND OFFICERS; TO DO WHAT?
-- TO PROTECT CHILDREN.
YOU THINK ABOUT PEOPLE
WHO WOULD BE INDIFFERENT,
HIT A CHILD OR HURT A CHILD
OR NOT CARE ABOUT A CHILD,
IT KIND OF GETS TO YOU.
YOU THINK, "HOW COULD THAT BE?"
THINK ABOUT THIS.
WHAT IF SOMEONE WAS COMING
INTO YOUR AREA OR INTO
YOUR HOUSE OR MAYBE
WHERE YOUR GRANDCHILDREN ARE
OR YOUR CHILDREN
WITH THE INTENTION OF TAKING
THAT CHILD IN WHATEVER
MISLEADING WAY THEY COULD?
A LOT OF TIMES PREDATORS
WILL OFFER A CHILD CANDY
OR SOMETHING TO GET
THEIR ATTENTION SO THEY CAN
TAKE THEM CAPTIVE.
PEDOPHILES DO THIS;
SOMETIMES THEY'LL EVEN TALK
ABOUT A PET OR SAY
THEY LOST A PET.
YOU THINK, HOW CAN THEY DO THIS?
HOW CAN ANYONE HURT A CHILD?
IN MUCH OF THE WORLD,
AND SADLY EVEN HERE IN THE U.S.
BUT IN MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD,
ESPECIALLY WHERE CHILDREN
ARE POOR, THE PREDATORS ARE
COMING IN AND THEY'RE TAKING
THOSE CHILDREN CAPTIVE
AND THEY TAKE THEM
INTO THE SEX TRAFFIC,
INTO SEXUAL SLAVERY,
AND USE THEM FROM SMALL CHILDREN
ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THEIR ADULT LIFE.
BETTY, I REMEMBER WHEN
WE FIRST STARTED TALKING
ABOUT THIS TO OUR TELEVISION
AUDIENCE WE THOUGHT,
WE DON'T KNOW IF OUR VIEWERS
ARE GOING TO WATCH IT.
I JUST WISH I COULD REACH OUT
AND THROW MY ARMS AROUND YOU.
NOT ONLY DID YOU WATCH,
YOU SAID, "WE CAN'T WAIT
TO HELP; WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO
TO RESCUE THOSE CHILDREN
AND THOSE WOMEN FROM BEING
HELD AS SEX SLAVES?"
AND YOU'VE HELPED BUILD
AN UNBELIEVABLE LIFE CENTER.
YOU'VE HELPED ESTABLISH CENTERS
AND OUTREACHES FOR CHILDREN.
IT'S BEEN UNBELIEVABLE!
BETTY, WE'RE BRINGING
ANOTHER AREA OF DEEP CONCERN
WHERE OUR VIEWERS CANNOT
ONLY START RESCUING
LITTLE CHILDREN BUT BUILD
ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL PLACE FOR THEM
WHERE THEY HAVE A FAMILY
AND THEY HAVE A CHANCE.
Betty: JAMES, WHEN I THINK OF
CHILDREN, THEY'RE SO PRECIOUS.
CHILDREN ARE SUPPOSED
TO BE CARED FOR.
THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE NURTURED.
THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE LOVED.
THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO HAVE
A SAFE PLACE.
AND THESE CHILDREN ARE STRIPPED
FROM ANY KIND OF SECURITY
THEY MIGHT HAVE HAD
WITH THEIR FAMILIES
AND THROWN INTO THIS LIFESTYLE
THAT THEY WOULD NOT HAVE CHOSEN.
THEY DID NOT GET TO MAKE
THE CHOICE BUT YET
THEY'RE TRAPPED.
THEY'RE JUST LIKE ANIMALS
PUT IN CAGES AND WAITING
FOR THE TIME WHEN THEY WILL
BE USED AND ABUSED.
IT JUST BREAKS MY HEART
WHEN I THINK ABOUT THIS.
BUT TO THINK ALSO THAT
WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE
ALL THAT, WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY
TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
FOR THESE CHILDREN SO THEY CAN
JUMP AROUND AND PLAY AND LAUGH
AND BE CHILDREN AGAIN.
James: YOU REFERENCED THAT
WAITING TIME TO WHERE
THEY'RE USED, THAT WAITING TIME
NORMALLY IS VERY, VERY SHORT.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, THEY WILL
TAKE THEM AND CAGE THEM
BUT NORMALLY WITHIN A MATTER
OF DAYS, IF NOT SOMETIMES HOURS,
THEY'VE GOT SOME CLIENT
COMING IN TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF THAT LITTLE INNOCENT CHILD,
AND THEN THEY HOLD THEM CAPTIVE.
I WANT YOU TO LISTEN
TO JEANNE ROGERS AS SHE,
IN THE MIDST OF THE HEARTACHE
AND THE PAIN
AND WHAT SHE HAS SEEN
AND WHAT SHE HAS WITNESSED,
SHE JUST BEGINS TO SHARE
HER HEART CONCERNING THE REALITY
OF WHAT'S GOING ON, THE PAIN,
AND REALLY THE HOPE
THAT WE CAN OFFER --
THAT CAN ONLY COME --
IT CAN ONLY COME FROM PEOPLE WHO
CARE AND SAY, "YOU KNOW WHAT?
I WANT TO CORRECT THAT.
I'M NOT ONLY GOING TO CARE,
I'M GOING TO DO WHATEVER
IT TAKES."
LISTEN TO JEANNE.
Jeanne: I WAS VAGUELY
AWARE IT EXISTED
BUT I HAD NO IDEA
HOW HORRIBLE IT WAS
UNTIL I WAS CONFRONTED
WITH IT FACE TO FACE.
HUMAN TRAFFICKING,
THE SEX SLAVE TRADE
IS HAPPENING IN OUR WORLD
RIGHT NOW.
WHEN I LEARNED THAT EVEN
CHILDREN WERE BEING TRAFFICKED,
I KNEW I HAD TO GO
TO THOSE PLACES.
I WANTED TO SEE
FOR MYSELF.
IT'S DANGEROUS TO GET A CLOSE
LOOK AT HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
YOU HAVE TO GO
UNDER COVER TO DO IT.
I HAD TO TRAVEL
AROUND THE WORLD, BASICALLY
TO GO TO THESE COUNTRIES WHERE
THE SEX TRADE IS SO PREVALENT.
THE FIRST CITY WE WENT TO
IS A VERY LARGE PLACE
AND THERE WERE STREET
AFTER STREET AFTER STREET
LINED WITH THESE CLUBS
AND BRIGHT NEON LIGHTS
ADVERTISING THESE YOUNG BEAUTIES
THAT COULD BE BOUGHT.
IT WAS HORRIBLE!
ONE AFTER ANOTHER, GUYS WOULD
COME UP TO US WITH A MENU
OF ALL THE SEXUAL ACTIVITY
THAT COULD BE BOUGHT
WITH THEIR PERSON...
THAT THEY WERE READY
TO SELL TO YOU.
IT WAS VERY COMMON AT NIGHT
AS WE WALKED THROUGH THE STREETS
TO SEE SOME CHILDREN
JUST PLAYING IN AN AREA
AND THERE WOULD BE
NO ADULT SUPERVISION AT ALL.
YOU KNOW IF I WAS ONE
OF THE TRAFFICKERS,
I COULD EASILY GRAB
THIS CHILD AND BE GONE
AND THE PARENTS WOULD
NEVER SEE HER AGAIN.
SHE IS THE KIND OF LITTLE GIRL
THAT THEY'RE LOOKING FOR.
THAT'S HOW THESE
HUMAN TRAFFICKERS WORK,
JUST SNATCHING CHILDREN
OFF OF THE STREETS.
THAT CHILD WOULD BE RAPED,
BEATEN, AND DRUGGED
FOR THE REST
OF THEIR LIFE.
THEY MIGHT EVEN BE IN A CAGE
TO BREAK THEIR SPIRIT,
TO BREAK ANY REBELLION
THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE.
I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE
WHAT A CHILD IS THINKING
ABOUT HIS LIFE
AND ABOUT HIS FUTURE
WHEN THAT'S BEING DONE TO HIM
BY THESE EVIL MEN.
WHAT A BIG BUSINESS IT IS
AND HOW PROFITABLE IT IS
FOR ALL THESE EVIL PEOPLE
THAT SEE NOTHING IN TAKING
A PRECIOUS CHILD'S LIFE
AND DESTROYING IT
BECAUSE THEY CAN MAKE
SOME MONEY OFF OF THEM.
James: DO YOU KNOW THAT
NEXT TO DRUGS, THAT'S THE SECOND
LARGEST ILLEGAL BUSINESS
IN THE WORLD?
WHAT JEANNE WAS DESCRIBING --
AND YOU SAW THE IMAGES
OF THE LITTLE GIRLS THAT
LIKE SHE SAID, THEY COULD
BE TAKEN SO QUICKLY AND THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT'S HAPPENING.
THEY'RE BEING TAKEN AND
THEY'RE BEING TAKEN CAPTIVE.
BETTY, IN NEPAL, THERE IS SUCH
EXTREME POVERTY AND IF YOU DON'T
KNOW WHERE IT IS,
YOU'VE GOT MOUNT EVEREST
AS ONE OF THE INCREDIBLE
BEAUTIFUL VISTAS THAT
YOU CAN SEE AND ITS RIGHT
WHERE THE CHILDREN CAN BE TAKEN
STRAIGHT INTO INDIA AND END UP
IN THE AREAS WHERE THERE IS
THE MOST, LET'S SAY,
MORE PEOPLE TRAFFICKING,
MORE PEOPLE THERE LOOKING
FOR SOMETHING.
THEY TAKE THESE CHILDREN
IN THOSE AREAS OUT OF
THE POVERTY AREAS WHERE
PEOPLE ARE SO DESPERATE THAT
WHEN SOMEBODY COMES IN AND SAYS,
"WE'LL DO SOMETHING FOR
YOUR CHILD," THE PARENTS WANT
THE LITTLE CHILD TO BE HELPED
AND HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY.
A LOT OF TIMES THEY PROMISE THEM
THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE THEM
AND GIVE THEM A GOOD EDUCATION,
EVEN ULTIMATELY HAVE A GOOD JOB
AND THEY'LL BE ABLE
TO HELP THE PARENTS,
AND THEY'VE GOT THEM.
BUT MANY TIMES THEY'LL JUST COME
TO A POOR AREA AND TAKE THEM.
YOU KNOW WE HAVE FOUND THAT
THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE
IN THE TRADE WHO HAVE CHILDREN
WHO ARE AFRAID THAT
THEIR CHILDREN ARE GOING
TO END UP THERE.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, YOU'RE
GOING TO HEAR SUCH A STORY.
BUT LET ME MAKE SURE
YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE DOING.
I THINK SOMETIMES YOU ASK
THE QUESTION, "WELL, JAMES,
WE SEE SOMETHING.
WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?"
HERE'S THE BEAUTY
OF THE LIFE CENTER.
DO YOU REMEMBER THE INCREDIBLE
LIFE CENTER THAT WE BUILT
IN THAILAND?
WELL, WE -- DO YOU UNDERSTAND
THE "WE"?
IT'S NOT JUST WE, LIFE OUTREACH,
OR WE, JAMES AND BETTY
AND OUR TEAM,
NO, "WE" IS YOU -- VIEWERS
ALL OVER THE WORLD,
YOU'RE THE "WE."
WELL, THAT INCREDIBLE
LIFE CENTER THAT WE BUILT,
SO BEAUTIFUL, YOU SEE IMAGES
OF IT IN PICTURES, YOU SEE
THE CHILDREN SINGING, HAPPY.
MANY OF THEM WERE TAKEN
FROM PREDATORS; MANY OF THEM
WERE TAKEN BEFORE
THE PREDATOR GOT THEM.
AND THEN WE'RE CONTINUALLY
MINISTERING TO CHILDREN,
NOT ONLY TO THOSE WHO STAY THERE
AND LEARN TO SPEAK ENGLISH
AND GET A GOOD EDUCATION
BUT THEY LEARN TO SING
AND PRAISE GOD AND THEY LOVE GOD
AND THEY GO OUT AND BLESS OTHERS
BUT WE HAVE PEOPLE
COMING THERE CONTINUALLY
WHERE THEY'RE BRINGING CHILDREN
FROM THE COMMUNITY
AND THEY'RE BEING TOUCHED.
THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO
IN NEPAL.
WE NEED TO BUILD A LIFE CENTER
IN NEPAL.
WE NEED ABOUT A QUARTER
OF A MILLION DOLLARS.
THIS IS ABOVE NORMAL
RESPONSIBILITIES THAT WE HAVE,
AND THAT'S IN ADDITION
TO RAISING THE SUPPORT,
$128 PER CHILD OR PER PERSON TO
GET THEM OUT OF THE SEX TRADE.
WE NEED A LOT OF $128 GIFTS.
REMEMBER THIS, BECAUSE OF
THE CONCERN OF OTHERS YOUR GIFT
IS GOING TO BE DOUBLED.
WHATEVER YOU GIVE,
IT IS DOUBLED.
BUT WE NEED NOT ONLY YOU TO HELP
RESCUE A CHILD OR A WOMAN,
BUT WE NEED YOU TO HELP US
BUILD THAT LIFE CENTER.
WE NEED THAT.
AND WE'RE ASKING YOU,
I'M IMPRESSED THERE IS SOMEONE
WHO CAN GIVE
SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS.
WHAT BETTER PLACE COULD YOU
PUT IT THAN TO RESCUE CHILDREN
FROM THIS AWFUL POSSIBILITY?
WOULD YOU MAKE A LARGE GIFT?
IT WILL BE DOUBLED.
WE'RE ASKING FOR $1,000 GIFTS
TO BUILD THE LIFE CENTER,
ALONG WITH THE $128 GIFTS
TO RESCUE A CHILD.
WHATEVER YOU GIVE,
IT'S DOUBLED.
I WANT YOU TO LISTEN TO THE CRY
OF A MOTHER, A PROSTITUTE
WHO WAS CONCERNED
ABOUT HER CHILD.
Announcer:
OUR MISSIONARY PARTNERS IN NEPAL
ARE MOTIVATED BY LOVE
AS THEY SEEK TO REACH CHILDREN
WHO ARE AT RISK
OF BEING TRAFFICKED
INTO THE SEX SLAVE TRADE.
KNOWING THAT CHILDREN ARE LITERALLY TRAFFICKED EVERY DAY
MOTIVATES THEM
TO TRAVEL
INTO THE FAR REACHES
OF REMOTE MOUNTAIN AREAS
AND DOWN TO THE DEPTH
OF THE CITY SLUMS.
Giselle:
WE WORK TOGETHER HERE.
THIS IS DHRUBA AND WE COME OUT TO THESE SLUMS WITH OUR TEAM
AND TRY TO GO OUT
AND HELP ALL OF THESE CHILDREN
THAT RIGHT NOW ARE IN DANGER
OF BEING TRAFFICKED.
Announcer: THIS DAY WAS
NO EXCEPTION FOR OUR TEAM
AS THEY LEARNED
ABOUT A MOTHER NAMED SUMA
AND HER DAUGHTER SHEPA
WHO ARE IN A BATTLE TO SURVIVE, NOT ONLY GRINDING POVERTY
BUT THE DANGERS
OF HUMAN TRAFFICKERS.
Giselle: SUMA AND SHEPA
ARE JUST BARELY SURVIVING.
IT IS FREEZING HERE.
THEIR CONDITIONS
ARE SO HORRIBLE.
SUMA, THE MOTHER
IS FORCED TO SELL HERSELF.
SHE HAS BEEN SELLING
HERSELF EVERY NIGHT
TO TRAFFICKERS
IN THE SLUM AREA
JUST TO BE ABLE
TO PROVIDE SOMETHING TO EAT
FOR LITTLE
SHEPA.
THE TRAFFICKERS HAVE
ALREADY ASKED THE MOTHER
IF THEY COULD
TAKE HER.
AT ANY MOMENT,
THESE TRAFFICKERS
COULD COME THROUGH
AND STEAL SHEPA FROM HER
AND SHE'LL NEVER SEE HER AGAIN.
THIS MOTHER IS
CRYING OUT TO US
TO HELP HER,
TO TAKE HER LITTLE GIRL
AND PUT HER SOMEWHERE SAFE.
AND MY TERROR IS
THAT I'M GOING TO COME BACK
AND WALK THROUGH THAT SLUM
AND I'M GOING TO FIND SUMA
AND I'M NOT GOING
TO SEE SHEPA ANYMORE.
IF WE CAN JUST GO IN THERE
AND PROVIDE A SAFE HOME FOR HER,
WE WILL
SEE HER AGAIN.
James: YOU HEAR THE HEART CRY.
A MOTHER SAYING,
"WOULD YOU TAKE MY LITTLE GIRL?"
THAT'S BECAUSE SHE KNOWS THAT
SHE'S LIKELY TO BE LITERALLY
TAKEN BY SOMEONE WHO IS TAKING
HER BACK INTO THE SAME KIND
OF SITUATION THAT
THE MOTHER ENDED UP IN.
SO SHE IS SAYING, "PLEASE TAKE
MY CHILD BECAUSE I KNOW
SOMEONE WILL COME TO TAKE HER
THAT IS GOING TO DESTROY HER
AND USE HER."
WELL, HOW DO WE TAKE THAT CHILD?
WELL, WE HAVE TO HAVE A PLACE
TO TAKE HER.
THAT'S WHY WE'RE ASKING YOU
TO LITERALLY GET UP AND GO
AND GET YOUR CHECKBOOK
OR GET YOUR BANKCARD
AND DIAL THE NUMBER THAT YOU SEE
THERE ON THE SCREEN AND SAY,
"I'M GOING TO HELP YOU
BUILD THAT LIFE CENTER."
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE CAPABLE OF DOING.
I KNOW BETTY AND I NEVER SEE
A NEED THAT WE THINK
WE COULD ADDRESS AT ANY LEVEL
AND GOD TOUCHES OUR HEART
THAT WE DON'T TRY TO DO IT.
OBVIOUSLY, WE CAN'T HELP
EVERY NEED.
THAT'S ONE REASON WE WERE
RELUCTANT TO EVEN BRING
THIS NEED TO OUR VIEWERS BECAUSE
YOU'RE A PRECIOUS PEOPLE,
MOST OF YOU ARE NOT ASSOCIATED
WITH THE WICKEDNESS
OF THE WORLD.
SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE BEEN
DELIVERED FROM IT BUT
YOU DON'T SEE THAT
AND YOU DON'T LIKE IT.
SO WE DIDN'T KNOW IF BRINGING IT
TO YOU WOULD BE EFFECTIVE.
BUT SURE ENOUGH, YOU SAID,
"WE CARE SO MUCH."
SO THAT'S WHAT
I'M ASKING YOU TO DO.
MAKE THE BEST GIFT YOU CAN
RIGHT NOW TO HELP US BUILD
THAT CENTER AND KNOW
IT WILL BE DOUBLED.
WHAT YOU GIVE WILL BE DOUBLED.
NOW REMEMBER THIS, THE AVERAGE
COST TO RESCUE A CHILD
OR A WOMAN, AND THIS IS WHAT
THE MISSIONARIES HAVE PROVEN
OVER THE YEARS, IT'S $128;
THAT WILL RESCUE SOMEONE.
IT WILL BE DOUBLED.
YOU SAY, "I CAN DO THAT."
THAT'S QUITE A STEP TO GIVE THAT
$128 BUT IT WILL NOW BE TWO.
YOU GIVE $1,000 TOWARD
THE LIFE CENTER, IT'S $2,000.
IF YOU COULD GIVE $5,000
IT BECOMES $10,000
ALL BECAUSE SOMEONE SAID,
"WE SEE THAT NEED
AND WE'RE GOING TO MEET IT."
GISELLE, SHE WAS ABUSED.
SHE WAS TRAFFICKED WHEN
SHE WAS A GIRL.
HORRIBLE!
HORRIBLE!
BUT IT HAPPENED.
SHE BECAME A FASHION MODEL.
SHE LEFT THAT TO GO AND HELP
THOSE IN AREAS LIKE NEPAL
AND SHE IS GIVING
THE WOMEN A JOB.
SHE'S TEACHING THEM TO MAKE
NECKLACES AND TO DO OTHER CRAFTS
TO MAKE A LIVING.
WE'RE SENDING A NECKLACE
TO THOSE OF YOU WHO WILL HELP
RESCUE A CHILD.
WE'RE SENDING THE BOOK,
INDIVISIBLE FOR ANY GIFT
THAT WILL HELP YOU LITERALLY
CORRECT OUR NATION'S COURSE
WITH WISDOM AND PRESERVE FREEDOM
ALL OVER THE WORLD --
VERY, VERY IMPORTANT BOOK.
AND "THE LION AND THE LAMB"
BRONZE FOR THOSE OF YOU
WHO WILL HELP BUILD
THAT LIFE CENTER.
FATHER, THAT MOTHER SAID,
"TAKE MY LITTLE GIRL."
WE WANT THAT LITTLE GIRL TO BE
IN YOUR ARMS, GOD, OF LOVE,
AND MISSIONARIES WHO CARE.
AND WE WANT THEM TO HAVE
A FUTURE, A HOPE
THAT YOU PROMISE.
MOVE PEOPLE RIGHT NOW TO GO
AND SAY, "HERE'S MY GIFT,
IN JESUS' NAME."
WOULD YOU MAKE THE GIFT
GOD PUT ON YOUR HEART PLEASE?
DIAL THE NUMBER,
TAKE YOUR BANKCARD, USE IT
LIKE A CHECK.
IF YOU WRITE A CHECK,
MAKE IT TO LIFE BUT CALL US
AND TELL US WHAT
YOU'RE PUTTING IN THE MAIL.
YOU CAN GO ONLINE, LIFETODAY.ORG
AND MAKE THE GIFT.

Announcer: HUMAN TRAFFICKERS TARGET INNOCENT CHILDREN
WHO THEN
BECOME ENSLAVED
IN A MULTIBILLION DOLLAR
A YEAR INDUSTRY
CALLED THE SEX SLAVE TRADE.
>> IMAGINE THIS,
ONE GIRL TAKEN
FROM HER FAMILY,
WHETHER SHE IS KIDNAPPED
OR TRICKED.
SHE IS SEXUALLY ABUSED
OVER AND OVER AGAIN,
MAYBE EIGHT
TO TEN CUSTOMERS
THAT SHE MAY HAVE
TO SERVICE IN ONE DAY.
>> WE'RE FIGHTING FOR CHILDREN THAT CAN'T FIGHT FOR THEMSELVES,
CHILDREN THAT WOULD BE
OTHERWISE USED IN THE SEX TRADE
OR BE BOUGHT AND SOLD
LIKE ANIMALS
FOR MONETARY GAIN.
IT IS
NOT RIGHT!
>> IT IS KIDS
JUST LIKE THESE
THAT RIGHT NOW
THEY'RE BEGGING
BUT THEY ARE ALSO BAIT
FOR PREDATORS.
IF WE DON'T GET THEM
OFF THE STREET
THEY WILL BE THE NEXT
TRAFFICKED VICTIMS.
Announcer:
AND WHEN THESE CHILDREN BECOME ENSLAVED AND DON'T COMPLY,
HORRIBLE THINGS ARE DONE TO THEM BY THE HUMAN TRAFFICKERS.
>> IT IS TRAGIC
WHAT IS HAPPENING
TO CHILDREN,
INNOCENT CHILDREN
AND IT IS NOT RIGHT.
OUR HEARTS
ARE BURDENED
BY ALL THE CHILDREN THAT ARE CRYING OUT FOR HELP TODAY,
THIS MOMENT,
THAT NEED INTERVENTION,
THAT NEED HELP,
THAT ARE WAITING FOR
SOMEONE TO HEAR THEIR CRIES
AND WE CAN ONLY DO IT
WITH YOUR HELP.
Betty: WELL, I LOOK AT THOSE
PRECIOUS CHILDREN
AND I SAW THAT ONE ESPECIALLY,
JUST LOOKING UP
WITH THEIR BIG BROWN EYES
AND IN THEIR HEART, I KNOW
THEY THINK, "WHO IS GOING
TO TAKE CARE OF ME?
WHAT DO WE DO NEXT?"
THESE CHILDREN DON'T HAVE
THE CHOICE TO MAKE WHETHER
THEY GET INTO THIS LIFESTYLE,
THEY'RE CAUGHT IN IT.
THEIR FAMILIES ARE LIED TO.
THEIR FAMILIES ARE PROMISED
THINGS THAT ARE NEVER GOING
TO HAPPEN FOR THEIR CHILDREN
AND SO THEY GO INTO
THIS LIFESTYLE
AND THESE CHILDREN ARE TRAPPED.
THEY NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE
TO BE A LITTLE CHILD,
TO JUMP AROUND AND PLAY,
AND TO LAUGH.
THAT JUST TEARS MY HEART OUT.
I KNOW THAT AS YOU'RE WATCHING,
IT TOUCHES YOUR HEART TOO.
WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING!
WE NEED TO GIVE THEM
A SAFE PLACE,
AND THAT SAFE PLACE
IS A LIFE CENTER WHERE
THEY CAN COME AND BE PROTECTED
AND WATCHED OVER.
PLEASE HELP US DO THAT!
James: WE WERE WATCHING
CAROL HART SITTING THERE
IN THE MIDST OF THE CHILDREN;
I THINK MOST OF YOU KNOW
THE STORY OF THE THAILAND
LIFE CENTER THAT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.
CAROL AND HER HUSBAND SERVED
THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY,
HOLLYWOOD, WITH GREAT POWER
PLANTS, GENERATORS,
FOR THEIR OUT-ON-LOCATION SHOOTS
AND THEY MADE GREAT MONEY.
SHE SOLD A SEVEN CARAT
DIAMOND RING IN ORDER TO HAVE
THE MONEY TO GO OVERSEAS.
OUR MISSION EMPHASIS TOUCHED
THEIR HEARTS AND GAVE THEM --
INCREASED THEIR BURDEN.
WE LITERALLY FOUND THEM
OVER THERE WORKING.
BETTY, THEY WERE THERE WORKING
WHEN WE FOUND THEM BECAUSE
WE WERE LOOKING TO SEE
WHAT WE COULD DO TO HELP,
AND THEY HAD ALREADY STARTED
RENTING PROPERTIES
AND TRYING TO HAVE A PLACE.
WHEN THEY FOUND OUT
OUR INTEREST, AND WE SAW
THEIR HEART, THAT THEY WERE
WILLING TO GO AND PLANT
THEIR LIVES THERE...
THEY NEVER COME BACK.
THEY COME BACK TO VISIT
BUT THAT'S WHERE THEY ARE.
WE FIND PEOPLE THAT HAVE
THAT HEART TO, SO TO SPEAK,
LEAVE EVERYTHING IN ORDER TO DO
WHAT GOD CALLED THEM TO DO.
HERE'S THE THING YOU NEED
TO UNDERSTAND BECAUSE SEE,
THE ENEMY, SATAN, WILL TRY
TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE
YOU DON'T LOVE ENOUGH BECAUSE
YOU'RE NOT OVER THERE.
WAIT A MINUTE, IF EVERYBODY
WAS OVER THERE, THERE WOULDN'T
BE ANYBODY THAT HAD
THE RESOURCES OR THE WHEREWITHAL
TO HELP THEM STAY THERE.
THAT'S WHY THE MISSIONARIES
ALWAYS WANT ME TO TELL YOU
THEY THINK
YOU'RE THE MOST IMPORTANT LINK.
THE BIBLE SAYS, "HOW SHALL
THEY GO UNLESS THEY'RE SENT?"
WELL, YOU'RE MAKING IT POSSIBLE.
TWO THINGS: WE NEED YOUR HELP
TO RESCUE AS MANY CHILDREN,
AS MANY GIRLS AS POSSIBLE.
IT COSTS $128 -- THAT'S
THE AVERAGE TO RESCUE A CHILD.
YOUR GIFT WILL BE MATCHED
BY CARING HEARTS WHO SAID,
"THIS IS SO IMPORTANT
WE'LL MATCH THE GIFT."
-- THAT'S BIG LOVE!
WOULD YOU DIAL THE NUMBER?
TAKE YOUR BANKCARD,
WRITE A CHECK, GO ONLINE,
LIFETODAY.ORG AND MAKE
THE BIGGEST GIFT YOU CAN.
IF YOU CAN HELP US BUILD
THAT LIFE CENTER, WE'RE ASKING
FOR $1,000 GIFTS OR MORE.
I KNOW THAT'S A LOT
BUT IT WILL BE DOUBLED
BUT WE NEED ABOUT A QUARTER
OF A MILLION DOLLARS.
YOU'D BE BUILDING SOMETHING HERE
THAT WOULD BE PROBABLY
SEVERAL MILLION DOLLARS
IN FACILITIES BECAUSE OF
THE LABOR AND EVERYTHING;
THE MATERIAL IS A LOT
LESS EXPENSIVE THERE IN NEPAL.
WOULD YOU GO TO THE PHONE
RIGHT NOW?
WOULD YOU MAKE THAT CALL?
REMEMBER, IF YOU HELP US
RESCUE A CHILD, GISELLE HAS
THESE GIRLS MAKING
BEAUTIFUL NECKLACES.
