Icing on the Cake

 

HADT’s Equine Assisted Learning Center is partnering with Kainos International to serve victims of human trafficking.  Recently a survivor from out of state moved in state to a safe house in the local area.  She was very excited to visit the equine learning center.  It was a dream of hers to spend time with horses.  She said that her time with the horses helped her to feel restored and refreshed.  "Icing on the Cake" was how she described having the opportunity to ride a horse.  We enjoy watching God “do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine according to his power that is at work within us.” Ephesians 3:20.   We could never have dreamed what God would do when he opened the doors for HADT’s equine assisted learning center.  It is amazing to see God work through rescued horses to provide healing to victims of human trafficking.

Immeasurably More and the Abundant Life

 

God has definitely been doing immeasurably more in ministry during the holidays. Ephesian 3:20. We advocate for survivors of human trafficking.  Over the past year and a half, we have been advocating for a survivor that was baptized on New Years Eve. She is currently doing well in a safe home and looking forward to her new life in Christ.  What a great way to start the new year.

When talking with another lady during the holiday season, she told part of her story because of a comment about how beautiful her Christmas lights and decorations were that adorned her cottage on the survivors’ transitional home property. The lady explained that a few years ago when she was still being trafficked, she had escaped from the traffickers for one evening and was walking in the streets in town.  During this time, she saw houses lit up with Christmas lights and she remembers crying and thinking that she was on the outside… and someday she wished to be on the inside of a cozy home with beautiful decorations.  She said, “now I am on the inside and living the abundant life!”  John 10:10

We are so thankful for God’s blessings and how He is blessing this ministry.  Thank you so much for partnering with us through prayer and finances.
