Who Are We...And How YOU Can Help

Who Are We:

Into the Darkness is a grassroots ministry that reaches out to women in sexually oriented businesses better known as spas or brothels. We deliver the gift bags directly into the brothels of Houston sharing Christ love as well as providing items these women may otherwise may not have/get. As ugly as it may seem, many of these ladies may serve up to 30 men a day/night without so much as a toothbrush or cleansing wipe.  Granted, our goal is to shine His light into these dark places, however...loving them and caring for them until they are freed is also our concern.

Who Can Make Baskets:

Any and everyone can donate items, or create the gift bags for donation.  This is a great opportunity for women's groups, bible study groups, Sunday schools, or just anyone that my wish to become involved but are just not sure how or what to do.

What to do Before Making Bags:
• Contact Terri at terrifitch@me.com or 281-628-4261. 
• Let me know when you will make basket so I can arrange pickup for delivery. Or if you're interested in becoming involved further we can discuss those options, too.

How to Make the Bags:

It's actually rather simple.  Most are in dire need of hygene items, yet we also include candies, nail polishes, puzzle books, candles, prayer booklets (though many are not of the American decent and cannot read English) so maybe a simple Bible verse on a card...and just whatever you feel these precious ladies could use or like. Personally, I have lots of friends that travel and they give me lots of the hotel size shampoos, lotions, soaps and these are GREAT for the bags.  We always add sweets, whether it's cookies, candies or chocolates.  Many are Asian, so fruit is ideal! Magazines are good, too!

Purchase some gift bags, or purses and simply fill them! It's just that easy.  However, the most important is covering these gifts with prayer.
