>> AND BASICALLY, FOR ME,
THAT'S THE NIGHT THAT
THE HORROR BEGAN.

Announcer: COMING UP, AS A 14-YEAR-OLD GIRL, GISELLE MEZA

WAS THE VICTIM
OF SEXUAL TRAFFICKING.

>> THIRTEEN DAYS
OF COMPLETE HORROR

THAT I ALMOST WISHED I WOULD
HAVE DIED... DURING THAT TIME.

I THOUGHT, IF I NEVER
GET OUT OF HERE--

IN MY MIND I WAS THINKING,
"HOW DO I CALL MY MOM?"

Announcer: HER STORY
OF SURVIVAL -- NEXT.

♪

Betty: WELCOME TO LIFE TODAY.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH
FOR JOINING US.

I'M BETTY, AND THIS IS JAMES.
James: WELL, WE ARE VERY
ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN DOING WHAT

WE BELIEVE IS ON GOD'S HEART
BUT ALSO WE'RE CONVINCED
IT'S ON YOUR HEART,

AND THAT'S RESCUING PEOPLE
FROM ONE OF THE MOST HORRIBLE
PRISONS ON THIS PLANET,

AND THAT'S BEING TRAPPED
IN THE SEX TRAFFICKING.
IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE

THAT PEOPLE WOULD COME
AND TAKE A CHILD, LITERALLY,
INTO BONDAGE AND CAPTIVITY

BUT IT'S HAPPENED.
GISELLE MEZA IS HERE AND
SHE IS A FORMER FASHION MODEL.

SHE IS BASICALLY, SO TO SPEAK,
IN SO MANY WAYS LEFT THE COMFORT
OF THAT PARTICULAR LIFE

TO GO IN AND RELIEVE PEOPLE
WHO HAVE BEEN TRAPPED.
WE ARE WORKING WITH HER

TO BUILD A LIFE CENTER,
TO RESCUE PEOPLE THAT ARE
REALLY THE PRIMARY TARGETS

FOR THE PREDATORS.
YOU'RE GOING TO BE EXCITED
ABOUT WHAT LOVE DOES

BUT YOU'RE GOING TO FIND OUT
SOMETHING FROM GISELLE THAT
WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW,

HOW SHE WAS TRAFFICKED,
NOT OVERSEAS BUT RIGHT HERE.
WOULD YOU WELCOME GISELLE MEZA

TO LIFE TODAY?
GISELLE, GLAD TO SEE YOU.
[Applause]

WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT
BUILDING THE LIFE CENTER.
WE KNOW CHILDREN ARE GOING

TO BE RESCUED.
WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT WHAT
YOU'VE DONE TO GIVE THE WOMEN

THAT HAVE COME OUT OF THE TRADE
WHERE THEY'VE BEEN PRISONERS,
AND YOU'VE GOT THEM

MAKING BEAUTIFUL NECKLACES.
YOU'VE HAD THEM DOING
OTHER THINGS TO LEARN A CRAFT,

TO MAKE A LIVING.
OUR VIEWERS ARE EXCITED
ABOUT THAT.

AS A MATTER OF FACT,
THESE NECKLACES ARE AVAILABLE --
WE WILL SEND ONE TO THOSE OF YOU

WHO SAY, "LET ME HELP
RESCUE ONE OF THE CHILDREN
OR ONE OF WOMEN."

WE'RE THRILLED TO BE ABLE
TO WORK WITH YOU.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WERE

NOT AWARE OF, AND WE'VE WORKED
WITH YOU FOR QUITE SOME TIME
AND NOW WE'RE ACTUALLY

REALLY DOING SOMETHING
YOU MIGHT SAY IS QUITE A STEP
OF FAITH AND THAT IS TO BUILD

A LIFE CENTER, LITERALLY A HOME
IN A PLACE WHERE REALLY THERE
IS NO END TO THE ABILITY

TO EXPRESS LOVE AND TO GIVE THEM
A FAMILY SETTING WHERE
THEY CAN GROW.

AND WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT IT.
BUT WE DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU HAD
ACTUALLY EXPERIENCED THE PAIN,

THE HORROR, THE PRISON
THAT YOU ARE NOW MOTIVATED
WITH THE COMPASSION OF THE LORD

TO LITERALLY RESCUE PEOPLE FROM,
YOU WERE ACTUALLY TRAPPED.
Giselle: YES.

James: WHAT HAPPENED?
Giselle: WELL, I WAS
14 YEARS OLD.

I'M ORIGINALLY FROM COSTA RICA;
I WAS RAISED IN COSTA RICA
AND I HAD MOVED TO

THE UNITED STATES.
AT 14 YEARS OLD, I WAS
LEFT ALONE BECAUSE MY MOTHER

HAD TO WORK THREE DIFFERENT JOBS
TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE.
MY OLDER SISTERS HAD ALREADY

GROWN AND GONE AWAY
SO I WAS ALONE AT HOME.
SHE HAD TO LEAVE ME ALONE

A LOT AT NIGHT.
ACTUALLY, I TOOK THREE BUSES
TO GET TO HIGH SCHOOL;

IT WAS THE BEGINNING
OF MY HIGH SCHOOL.
AS I WOULD TAKE THE BUS

EVERY DAY A WOMAN STARTED
TO COME AROUND
AND JUST GAIN MY TRUST.

SHE TOOK ME FOR LUNCH;
THEN SHE INVITED ME FOR DINNER.
I WENT.

AND SUDDENLY I THOUGHT, WOW,
THIS IS SUCH A NICE LADY.
SHE REALLY CARES ABOUT ME.

SHE IS LIKE THAT OLDER SISTER
THAT I DIDN'T HAVE AROUND.
THEN THE SUMMERTIME CAME AROUND

AND SHE SAID, "I HAVE A PLACE
IN NEW YORK CITY.
WHY DON'T YOU COME

TO NEW YORK WITH ME?
AND THERE I DON'T HAVE ANYBODY.
I DON'T HAVE FAMILY THERE.

COME WITH ME."
SO I THOUGHT, OKAY.
IN MY HEART, I THOUGHT, NOBODY

REALLY CARES ABOUT ME ANYWAY.
WHO'S GOING TO MISS ME?
MAYBE I'M GOING TO MAKE A LIFE

FOR MYSELF SOMEHOW.
SO I WENT WITH HER TO NEW YORK.
AFTER A FEW DAYS OF BEING THERE

SHE TOOK ME
TO GET IDENTIFICATION
AND THAT'S WHERE THINGS STARTED

TO CHANGE A LITTLE BIT.
SHE WENT AND GOT ME A FAKE I.D.
SO I THOUGHT MAYBE IT'S JUST

BECAUSE -- I'M THINKING
IN MY CHILD MIND --
MAYBE THIS IS BECAUSE

SHE NEEDS TO TAKE ME
TO RESTAURANTS AND MAYBE
SHE NEEDS SOMETHING

TO GET ME IN.
SO THAT CONTINUED.
THEN SHE SAID TO ME AFTER

A FEW DAYS, "YOU KNOW,
I HAVE A PLACE IN LONDON.
WHY DON'T YOU COME WITH ME

TO LONDON?"
I WENT WITH HER TO LONDON.
SHE TOOK ME TO MY ROOM.

THIS IS YOUR ROOM
AND THE ROOM WAS COZY,
THINGS I HAD NEVER HAD OR SEEN.

I THOUGHT, I'M IN A DREAM.
I GET TO STAY HERE WITH
THIS WOMAN THAT CARES FOR ME?

SHE IS GOING TO SHOW ME AROUND.
SO I STAYED IN THIS ROOM
AND THEN SHE SAID, "JUST REST."

SO I WENT TO SLEEP.
I WOKE UP WITH SUCH JET LAG
AND REALLY THIRSTY

SO I WANTED TO GET SOME WATER.
I LOOK UP OUT OF MY ROOM
AND I WALK DOWN THE HALL

TO GO INTO THE KITCHEN.
WHEN I LOOKED IN THE KITCHEN,
IT WAS FULL OF

MIDDLE EASTERN MEN.
THEY WERE ALL SITTING
ON THE FLOOR EATING,

HAVING A PARTY --
EATING, SMOKING, DRINKING.
THERE WAS MUSIC AND EVERYTHING.

AND I LOOKED AND I THOUGHT,
WHERE AM I?
AND WHERE IS THE WOMAN

THAT BROUGHT ME HERE?
WHERE AM I?
SO I LOOKED IN THERE

AND ALL I WANTED WAS SOME WATER.
THEN I QUICKLY GOT OUT.
I WALKED DOWN THE HALLWAY

AND EVERY ROOM THAT I STARTED
TO LOOK IN WAS...
LIKE AN ORGY GOING ON.

BASICALLY, IT WAS THINGS
I HAD NEVER SEEN
AND I LOOKED IN ONE ROOM

AND IT WAS THIS GIANT SALON
FULL OF MEN SMOKING
AND DRINKING.

THERE WERE NAKED WOMEN
RUNNING ALL OVER THE PLACE.
THEY WERE PLAYING TAMBOURINES.

EVERY CORNER THAT I LOOKED IN
WAS A DIFFERENT SCENARIO
GOING ON.

AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF,
NOW WHAT DO I DO?
I WALKED BACK DOWN THE HALLWAY.

I GOT INTO MY ROOM
AND I STAYED THERE
AND I JUST WENT TO SLEEP.

THE NEXT MORNING I SAW HER
AND SHE SAID, "OH, IT WAS JUST
A PARTY THAT WAS GOING ON

AND EVERYTHING."
BUT WHEN I WOKE UP
EVERYTHING WAS CLEAN

AND THERE WAS NOBODY THERE.
SO SHE GAVE ME SOMETHING
TO WEAR.

SHE SAID, "HERE, YOU NEED
TO WEAR THIS TONIGHT."
AND THEN I SAID, "OKAY,

WHERE ARE WE GOING?"
I WAS WONDERING WHEN
WE'RE GOING TO GO HOME.

SHE SAID, "NO, WE NEED TO STAY
HERE FOR SOME MORE TIME.
I NEED TO TAKE YOU WITH ME

TO THIS RESTAURANT;
YOU NEED TO DRESS NICE."
SO I PUT ON WHAT SHE GAVE ME

AND WE WENT AND IT WAS
A VERY EXCLUSIVE CLUB.
AND I GOT THERE AND ONCE AGAIN,

THE PLACE WAS FULL
OF MIDDLE EASTERN MEN
AND IT WAS TABLES OF THEM.

SO THEN I FOUND MYSELF
BASICALLY HAVING TO GO
SIT WITH THESE MEN.

AND THAT NIGHT THEN,
I REALIZED SHE WAS
CALLING ME OUT BECAUSE

THESE WERE MEN THAT
WERE WAITING FOR ME.
SO SHE HAD BROUGHT ME THERE

AS A 14-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN
THAT BASICALLY, SHE SOLD
TO ALL THESE MEN.

SO ALL I COULD DO WAS DO WHAT
SHE WAS FORCING ME TO DO.
THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME

TO ESCAPE OR GET OUT OF THERE.
BASICALLY, FOR ME THAT'S
THE NIGHT THE HORROR BEGAN.

THERE WAS NO WAY
FOR ME TO ESCAPE THERE.
THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME

TO GET OUT.
THERE WAS NOBODY HEARING ME.
NOBODY KNEW I WAS EVEN THERE.

I'M STUCK IN THIS ROOM
WITH MEN AFTER MEN AFTER MEN
AND THESE ARE ADULT GROWN MEN

THAT ANYWHERE FROM THEIR 20s
TO THEIR 60s.
SO THEY KNEW VERY WELL

WHAT THEY WERE DOING
AND IT WAS VERY ORGANIZED.
SO I WAS TRAPPED THERE

AND I WOULD SAY THAT WAS 13 DAYS
OF COMPLETE HORROR THAT
I ALMOST WISHED I WOULD

HAVE DIED...
DURING THAT TIME.
I THOUGHT, IF I NEVER

GET OUT OF HERE --
IN MY MIND I WAS THINKING,
HOW DO I CALL MY MOM?

HOW CAN I GET OUT OF HERE?
HOW CAN I REACH MY MOM?
AND TO THINK -- I THOUGHT

AS A CHILD, SOMEHOW SOMETHING
GREAT WAS GOING TO COME OUT
OF THIS.

SOMEHOW I WAS GOING
TO HELP MY MOM.
SOMEHOW I WAS GOING TO BECOME

A PRINCESS OR SOMETHING.
IN MY MIND I'M THINKING
ALL SORTS OF FANTASY THINGS

TO BE ABLE TO HELP BECAUSE
I WAS IN SUCH A BAD SITUATION
AS A CHILD AND MY MOM

WAS STRUGGLING SO HARD.
I REMEMBER SITTING
IN THE BATHROOM AND SITTING

IN THE BATHTUB THINKING,
WHO IS GOING TO HELP ME?
NOBODY IS GOING TO PULL ME

OUT OF HERE.
THAT JUST CONTINUED
AND CONTINUED AND CONTINUED

FOR ABOUT 13 DAYS STRAIGHT.
THEN THE SAME WOMAN TOOK ME
TO ONE CLUB ONE NIGHT

AND THERE WAS A MAN THAT SAID
TO ME, "OKAY."
SO HE CALLED ME OVER

TO HIS TABLE AND --
I'LL NEVER FORGET HIS MOTIONING
OF -- I ALMOST KNEW THAT WAS

THE END OF ME, SOMEHOW.
AND HE, MOTIONED ME TO COME OVER
AND I SAT NEXT TO HIM.

HE SAID, "OKAY, TOMORROW MORNING
I'LL HAVE MY DRIVER PICK YOU UP
AND THEN I'LL TAKE YOU

TO MY COUNTRY. WE'RE LEAVING."
I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE.
I HAD NO VOICE.

I COULDN'T SAY TO HIM,
"NO, I DON'T WANT TO GO.
I WANT TO GO TO MY MOM.

CALL MY MOTHER."
Betty: DID YOUR MOM EVEN KNOW
WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO YOU?

YOU JUST DISAPPEARED?
Giselle: I JUST DISAPPEARED.
SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHERE I WAS.

SO I HAD TOLD HER I WAS
GOING WITH SOME FRIENDS AWAY.
SO IN THIS SETTING, AT THIS CLUB

WHERE THIS MAN SAID,
"YOU'RE GOING TO GO WITH ME,"
I THOUGHT, NO,

I DON'T WANT TO GO.
I WANT TO GO HOME.
AND I REALIZED THAT THE WOMAN

THAT HAD TRAFFICKED ME,
THAT HAD SOLD ME TO ALL
THESE MEN BECAME VERY AGGRAVATED

THAT THAT MAN DECIDED
HE WANTED TO TAKE ME.
SO THERE WAS SOMETHING GOING ON.

SHE GOT VERY PREOCCUPIED WITH IT
AND SAT NEXT TO HIM
AND STARTED DRINKING

AND TALKING TO THIS MAN.
AT THAT TIME I THOUGHT,
I STARTED TO STEP AWAY FROM

THE TABLE AND BY THIS TIME,
NOBODY HAD GIVEN ME ANY FOOD,
NOTHING TO DRINK,

NOTHING TO EAT.
SHE DIDN'T CARE
ABOUT ME ANYMORE.

SHE DIDN'T LOVE ME
LIKE I THOUGHT SHE WAS.
SHE WASN'T EVEN GIVING ME WATER.

HERE I WAS BEING FORCED
TO SERVICE THESE ADULT MEN
COMPLETELY AGAINST MY WILL,

NOT EVEN KNOWING
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
SO I STEPPED AWAY

AND I WENT TO THE BATHROOM.
WHEN I CAME BACK,
I HEARD A VOICE THAT SAID,

"GET OUT NOW. GO!"
AND SO I THOUGHT, HOW AM
I GOING TO GET OUT OF HERE?

AND THEY WERE ALL PREOCCUPIED
DRINKING AND EVERYTHING.
SO I WALKED DOWNSTAIRS

AND THERE WAS A DRIVER
AND I SAID, "I LEFT
AND NOBODY SAW ME.

I NEED TO GO BACK TO THE FLAT."
AND THE MAN ACTUALLY TOOK ME.
HE TOOK ME BACK.

I RAN UPSTAIRS.
THEY HAD MAIDS IN THERE
THAT WERE CLEANING

AND I GRABBED MY BACKPACK
AND I RAN TO THE AIRPORT.
HE TOOK ME TO THE AIRPORT.

I HAD NO WAY TO GET HOME.
SO I CALLED COLLECT MY FRIENDS
IN OREGON, AND THEY ASKED

THEIR MOTHER TO GET ME
A TICKET TO GO BACK HOME.
I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK.

James: BASICALLY, YOU ESCAPED.
Giselle: ESCAPING --
AND TO THIS DAY, HAD I NOT HEARD

THE VOICE THAT SAID,
"GET OUT NOW."
...AND IF THAT MAN DIDN'T

DRIVE ME, WHICH I DON'T KNOW
WHY HE TOOK ME TO THE AIRPORT.
IF HE HADN'T TAKEN ME,

I WOULD HAVE NEVER ESCAPED;
I NEVER WOULD HAVE GOTTEN AWAY.
I WOULD HAVE BEEN TRAPPED.

I WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST FOREVER
INTO A DIFFERENT COUNTRY.
James: YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN

TRAPPED IN THE VERY SITUATION
THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO HELP GIRLS
GET FREE FROM.

AND YOU'RE HELPING CHILDREN
AND GIRLS WHO ARE EVEN
IN GREATER POVERTY.

THEY HAVE GREATER DISTRESS
THAN YOU HAD,
THEY'RE MORE VULNERABLE.

AND IT'S REAL EASY NOT ONLY
TO MAKE THE CHILDREN
OR THE GIRLS THINK THERE IS

SOMETHING BETTER BUT EVEN
THEIR FAMILIES, OFTENTIMES
ARE MISLED.

SO YOU HAVE -- AND THIS IS
THE THING THAT'S SO INCREDIBLE
RIGHT NOW, GISELLE,

WHO EXPERIENCED THIS PAIN --
MOST OF YOU WHO WATCH LIFE TODAY
AND YOU LISTEN TO ME,

YOU KNOW THAT I DIDN'T
HAVE A FATHER.
I GREW UP VERY POOR,

AND OBVIOUSLY OUT OF THAT PAIN
AND THAT LOSS I CARE ABOUT
THE FATHERLESS, I CARE ABOUT

PEOPLE WHO HAVE FATHERS
AND FAMILIES GET TO KNOW
THE FATHER, THE ULTIMATE FATHER

BECAUSE I KNOW THAT'S WHAT
WE ALL NEED --
EVERY FATHER NEEDS THAT,

EVERY CHILD NEEDS IT,
AND THE POOR, THE DOWNTRODDEN
ALL OVER THE WORLD BECAUSE

I IDENTIFY AND I KNOW
WE CAN MOVE BEYOND THAT,
THERE IS HOPE.

WELL, GISELLE WAS TRAPPED.
SO SHE UNDERSTANDS THE PAIN
AND SHE UNDERSTANDS

THE EFFECTIVE MANIPULATION
THAT TAKES PLACE AND HOW
VULNERABLE THE CHILDREN ARE.

SO GISELLE, YOU HAVE GONE
TO THE MISSION FIELD
AND YOU'VE GONE TO ONE OF

THE BEAUTIFUL SETTINGS
IN THE SENSE THAT
THE BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAINS

AND EVEREST IS THERE,
AS THE GREAT BEAUTY,
AND YET THE SORROW

AND THE POVERTY MAKES
THESE CHILDREN SO VULNERABLE,
AND WOMEN SO VULNERABLE,

THAT THEY'RE EASILY
TAKEN CAPTIVE AND THEN TAKEN
INTO THE SEX TRAFFICKING

IN INDIA IN THE AREAS WHERE
THEY HAVE PLENTY
OF OPPORTUNITY TO BE SOLD

AND YOU'RE COMMITTED
TO RESCUING THEM.
I KNOW RIGHT NOW BECAUSE

OF OUR COMMUNICATION
AND OUR MISSION TEAM BEING
WITH YOU ON THE FIELD,

YOU'RE MORE EXCITED THAN
YOU'VE EVER BEEN BECAUSE
NOW YOU HAVE A PLACE TO HELP

THE VERY CHILDREN THAT
ARE HEADED FOR WHAT
YOU EXPERIENCED AND WOMEN

THAT ARE ALREADY IN IT.
YOU BELIEVE THIS IS AN ANSWER
TO YOUR PRAYERS IN BEHALF

OF THE DESPERATE IN NEPAL.
Giselle: YES. AMEN.
I WAS ABLE TO GET AWAY

AND TO BE ABLE TO BE PART
OF HELPING TO RESCUE THEM,
OF PROVIDING HOPE FOR THEM,

OF INTERVENING FROM TRAFFICKERS
TAKING THESE CHILDREN
AND THESE WOMEN THAT WILL

BE LOST FOREVER
AND NEVER FOUND AGAIN,
IS SO JOYFUL, TO BE ABLE

TO BE PART OF THIS.
I COULD NEVER DO IT.
OUR TEAMS COULD NEVER DO THIS.

IF IT WASN'T FOR YOUR HELP,
IF IT WASN'T FOR THE HELP
OF THE VIEWERS, AND LIFE TODAY

PARTNERING WITH US,
WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO
BE OUT THERE DOING THE JOB

THAT WE'RE DOING.
RIGHT NOW AT THE BORDER
BETWEEN NEPAL AND INDIA,

WE'RE ABLE TO STOP BETWEEN
THREE TO SEVEN LITTLE CHILDREN
FROM BEING TRAFFICKED

EVERY WEEK.
WE'RE ABLE TO GO UP --
James: DID YOU HEAR THAT?

RESCUE THREE TO SEVEN
EVERY WEEK WITH WHAT
THEY HAVE NOW.

AND OF COURSE, WHEN YOU GET
THE CENTER, YOU'VE GOT
AN IMMEDIATE PLACE TO TAKE THEM

WHERE THEY'RE NOT JUST
TRYING TO MAKE DO BUT
THEY'VE GOT A PLACE THAT'S

LIKE A HAVEN OF SECURITY.
AND THEN THAT'S GOING
TO EXPAND YOUR ABILITY,

ISN'T IT, ESPECIALLY WHEN
PEOPLE SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING.
IT'S LIKE WHEN JESUS

IS LIFTED UP, HE DRAWS PEOPLE.
THAT'S PRECISELY WHAT
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE.

Giselle: YES, IT'S INCREDIBLE
THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO,
WITH YOUR SUPPORT, GO OUT

AND RESCUE THESE CHILDREN.
BUT NOW WE DON'T HAVE ANYWHERE
TO PUT THEM SO WE'VE BEEN

TAKING THESE CHILDREN
AND WE'VE BEEN PUTTING THEM
IN VOLUNTEERS' HOMES

AND PASTORS' HOMES.
WE'VE GOT RIGHT NOW
15 LITTLE CHILDREN THAT WE KNOW

THAT ONCE WE'RE ABLE TO GET
THIS RESCUE CENTER
AND THIS LIFE CENTER THAT

WE'VE BEEN PRAYING ABOUT,
THAT WE CAN ONLY DO WITH
YOUR HELP AND YOUR SUPPORT,

WE'LL BE ABLE TO MOVE
THOSE CHILDREN INTO
THESE HOMES AND THEY'LL HAVE

A NEW LIFE AND THEY'LL BE SAFE.
I KNOW THOSE CHILDREN
HAVE NO HELP.

THEY HAVE NO WAY OUT.
THEY HAVE NO WAY TO HAVE
A NEW LIFE.

BUT BECAUSE OF YOUR HELP,
WE'RE NOW ABLE TO PROVIDE
A HOME FOR THEM SO THEY CAN NOW

BE SAFE.
I WAS -- I WAS RESCUED BY JESUS.
I WAS ABLE TO GO BACK HOME.

James: BUT THERE WERE
STILL SOME PEOPLE INVOLVED.
THERE WERE SOME PEOPLE

INVOLVED EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY
NOT HAVE KNOWN IT,
OUR VIEWERS CAN KNOW IT.

THEY SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING.
SO THEY KNOW THEY'RE AN AGENT
OF HELP AND RESCUE.

BUT YOU STILL HAD TO HAVE HELP
AND NOW WE'RE OFFERING HELP
THAT'S VERY REAL,

IT'S WHAT OUR VIEWERS DO.
WOULD YOU HERE SAY THANKS
TO GISELLE AND TO GOD

FOR WHAT THE LORD'S
ENABLING HER TO DO?
[Applause]

GISELLE, I REALLY
ON BEHALF OF THE CHILDREN
AND THE WOMEN THAT

YOU'RE ACTUALLY NOW AFTER
THEY GET OUT AND GET FREE,
YOU'RE GIVING THEM JOBS

AND THESE PRECIOUS CHILDREN --
SEE, THEY'RE THE TARGETS
OF THE PREDATORS.

I WANT YOU TO JUST GO WITH US
TO NEPAL AND WITH
OUR MISSION TEAM AND

JUST LISTEN TO THE HEART
OF THE MISSION WORKERS.
AND GISELLE IS THERE

REACHING OUT.
WATCH THIS.

>> THE TRAFFICKERS
ARE AROUND HERE

AND GO THROUGH THESE KINDS
OF PRECIOUS GIRLS' HOUSES.

THEY ARE BEING TRAFFICKED
EVERY DAY FOR A LITTLE AMOUNT.

THEY ARE TRICKED
OUT OF THE VILLAGES

AND SOLD INTO
THE BROTHELS OVERNIGHT.

Giselle: THESE ARE
THREE SISTERS

AND THEY ARE AN EXAMPLE
OF WHAT HAPPENS

UP HERE IN THESE
MOUNTAIN REGIONS.

THEIR MOTHER
HAD PASSED AWAY.

THEY WERE ALONE
AND AN UNCLE TOOK THEM

AND SO A TRAFFICKER
CAME THROUGH,

OFFERED SOME MONEY
POSING AS A BUSINESSMAN

TO TAKE THESE LITTLE GIRLS
INTO INDIA

AND TO GIVE THEM A JOB
AS MAIDS OVER THERE.

THE UNCLE
NEEDED THIS MONEY

SO HE WAS JUST ABOUT
TO SELL THESE LITTLE GIRLS

AND RIGHT IN TIME
THERE WAS A VOLUNTEER

FROM THE
PREVENTION PROGRAM

THAT APPROACHED
THE UNCLE

AND THEY CAME
TO WATCH THIS MOVIE.

>> WE GO AROUND
THE SCHOOLS HERE.

WE TAKE OUR MOVIE
THERE ALSO

AND MANY CHILDREN
THAT ARE AT RISK

COME TO
OUR PREVENTION MOVIE
AND SEE IT,

AND BE AWARE
OF WHAT IS GOING ON,

AND KIDS LIKE THESE HAVE BEEN PREVENTED THROUGH THE MOVIE.

THE MOVIE
IS ABOUT THE GIRL

AT THE AGE
OF 13 YEARS OLD;

HOW SHE GETS TRICKED
BY THE TRAFFICKER,

PROMISED
A BETTER FUTURE

AND TAKES HER
ACROSS THE BORDER

AND SELLS
IN FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS
TO THE BROTHEL

AND THE GUY
WALKS AWAY.

Giselle: THIS HAS HELPED
TO SAVE THESE LITTLE GIRLS,

BUT NOW WE'VE TAKEN THESE BEAUTIFUL PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRLS

BUT WE HAVE NO SPACE
TO KEEP THEM.

AND WE'RE IN
TREMENDOUS NEED

OF BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE
A LIFE CENTER

SO THAT WE CAN HELP
THESE LITTLE GIRLS TO THRIVE

AND TO BE SAFE.

James: BOY, YOU'RE JUST SEEING
CLEAR IMAGES THERE
OF JUST EVIL PERSONIFIED;

THAT YOU WOULD TAKE
THOSE BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRLS,
PRECIOUS LITTLE INNOCENT ONES

AND USE THEM TO GRATIFY
THE MOST SELFISH
DESPICABLE APPETITES

IMPOSED ON VULNERABLE CHILDREN.
AND THEN TO SEE THE WISDOM
OF THE MISSION WORKERS,

AND GISELLE AND THE OTHERS,
THAT THEY WOULD SHOW
THE CHILDREN HOW VULNERABLE

THEY ARE WITH THIS FILM, TO SHOW
WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENED,
AND WHAT CAN HAPPEN.

AND THEN TO REALIZE
THAT WE CAN GIVE THEM
A FUTURE AND A HOPE.

THAT'S WHY
WE'RE CALLING IT RESCUE LIFE
AND GIVE THEM HOPE AND A FUTURE.

LISTEN, I KNOW, BETTY,
THERE IS NOT A VIEWER WATCHING
DURING THIS LAST WEEK

OF RESCUE LIFE WHERE WE'RE
ASKING YOU TO HELP US RESCUE
AS MANY CHILDREN AS WE CAN

IN MANY DIFFERENT AREAS;
WE WORK IN THAILAND,
WE WORK IN CAMBODIA,

WE WORK IN SOME AREAS WHERE
WE DON'T SAY THE NAME WHERE
WE'RE WORKING BECAUSE IT WOULD

JEOPARDIZE THE MISSION WORKERS.
BUT WE'RE ALSO ASKING YOU
TO HELP US THERE IN INDIA BUT

WITH THE LIFE CENTER IN NEPAL,
AND WE CAN BUILD THAT
BECAUSE THE CHILDREN ARE TAKEN

OUT OF THE POVERTY THERE
AND THEN TAKEN INTO INDIA
AND USED AS SEX SLAVES.

SO WHAT WE'RE ASKING YOU TO DO,
AND BETTY, I'M BELIEVING
EVERYONE WATCHING

IS GOING TO HELP TODAY.
HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU
TO UNDERSTAND,

$128 WILL RESCUE SOMEONE
FROM THE TRAFFICKING

AND IT'S GOING TO BE DOUBLED
BECAUSE SOMEONE WITH
A BROKEN HEART AND COMPASSION

AND THE ABILITY SAYS,
"I'LL MATCH YOUR GIFT."
THEN WE'RE ASKING YOU

TO HELP BUILD THIS CENTER,
THE LIFE CENTER THERE IN NEPAL.
IT'S SO IMPORTANT WE DO THIS.

THEY NEED A PLACE,
THEY NEED A HOME,
THEY NEED A LIFE CENTER;

AND NOT ONLY THE ONES
THAT STAY THERE BUT SO MANY
THAT WILL COME THROUGH THERE;

SO MANY THAT WILL BE EXPOSED,
FOR INSTANCE,
TO THE MESSAGE OF THE FILM.

WE'RE ASKING YOU RIGHT NOW
PLEASE, I DON'T REALLY THINK
THAT I NEED TO PLEAD WITH YOU

TO DO IT; I THINK YOUR HEART
LEAPS AT THE OPPORTUNITY
KNOWING THAT WHATEVER YOU DO

WILL BE DOUBLED.
WOULD YOU GO TO THE PHONE
RIGHT NOW?

WOULD YOU TAKE YOUR BANKCARD
AND USE IT LIKE A CHECK?
IF YOU WRITE A CHECK

MAKE IT TO LIFE
BUT IT'S REAL IMPORTANT
YOU CALL US AND TELL US

WHAT'S COMING SO WE CAN --
I WOULD LOVE
TO BE ABLE TO REPORT

TO THE MISSION WORKERS THERE,
"LOOK, ADD ANOTHER WING.
WE GOT THAT KIND OF RESPONSE."

AND YES, WE WILL DO THAT.
WE GET MONEY
TO DRILL MORE WELLS,

WE'LL DRILL MORE THAN THE GOAL,
BUT YOU'RE THE ONES
THAT DETERMINE THAT.

SO EACH CHILD
YOU CAN HELP US RESCUE,
EACH GIFT YOU MAKE,

WE'RE ASKING FOR $1,000 GIFTS
OR MORE TO HELP BUILD
THAT LIFE CENTER,

AND FOR AS MANY $128 GIFTS
AS WE CAN GET.
BETTY, I'M BELIEVING

EVERYONE IS GOING TO HELP.
Betty: I NOTICE
AS WE WERE WATCHING,

I HEARD A LITTLE GIGGLE
FROM ONE OF THE GIRLS
AND I THOUGHT, HOW SWEET,

HOW PRECIOUS.
THAT'S WHAT
IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE:

JOY, SAFETY, AND SECURITY.
THAT'S WHAT WE NEED
THE LIFE CENTER FOR.

A PLACE WHERE
THEY CAN LAY THEIR HEADS
AND NOT BE AFRAID AT NIGHT

OR IN THE MORNING
WHEN THEY WAKE UP THAT SOMEONE
IS GOING TO TAKE THEM AWAY.

PLEASE HELP US DO THIS.
James: ONE OF THE MANIFESTATIONS
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS JOY.

AND PAUL SAID, "JOY UNSPEAKABLE
AND FULL OF GLORY."
AND JESUS SAID, "OF SUCH

IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN...
LITTLE CHILDREN."
WOULD YOU ENABLE THEM

TO BE LITTLE CHILDREN
AND LIKE BETTY SAID, TO SMILE?
FATHER, I PRAY EVERYONE WATCHING

WILL GO TO THE PHONE
OR GO ONLINE AND SAY,
"HERE'S MY GIFT

TO RESCUE A PRECIOUS LIFE."
WE HAVE GIFTS TO BLESS YOU,
TO SAY THANK YOU

FOR GIVING LIFE...
RESCUING LIVES.
