India - Tamar Ministry
This Jesus-modeled ministry was birthed in Mumbai, India, in 2007 with the mission of leading women out of the demeaning and destructive profession of prostitution, in addition to rescuing girls who have been driven into sex trafficking. Spiritual mentoring is provided for the women who are part of Tamar, along with providing basic initial needs, medical care, and training for job opportunities for their future. When one of the Tamar leaders in Mumbai had to escape to Kolkata (Calcutta) in 2018, she took with her a great passion for the Lord and a desire to rescue sex workers there. The Tamar Kolkata ministry has been very successful in its brief life, with many baptisms.
