This is a REAL ISSUE...
The greatest injustice is those unreached with the hope of the gospel. The reality of this issue is that millions are being enslaved and are in desperate need of the Healer. We believe that Jesus is placing a burning on the hearts of His children to go and reach this unreached people group. The church should be the first responders to a crisis such a this. About 98 percent of women in prostitution, have a trafficker. There is no little girl that said “prostitution” would be her dream job. We believe God desires for his daughters to come home and to be made new again.
“The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, for the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed.” Isaiah 61:1

Take the City has had a huge impact on me and my daughter. When God led me from one place, this door was wide opened. I had the great ability to experience more of God and see the signs that follow them that believed. *Mark 16:17-20*
The people I've met have showed soooooo much love to us and I'm grateful for that. Not only do they teach on truth, but they walk in the power of the Holy Spirit and encourage others around them to do so also! God has also allowed me to be a part of a ministry as well. I want to say thank you thank you God first and thank you to Take the City!!
