Wednesday, 12th.
Today, we met 3 women rescued from an Indian brothel. One is a bit older, and the other two were 20 and 18 respectively. The two young ones have already been enslaved for 4 years. These are the first of more we are hoping to get. I am unclear about how this has come about, but they will be flying back to Kathmandu with us tomorrow also. Raju is organising a half-way house for them, where they will be cared for and trained so they can gain meaningful employment. We had lunch with them and it is so great to think what the Lord can do to change these lives. This afternoon, we all piled into the bus, with all our new additions, and went to another village a couple of hours away. We were trying to arrange for girls from there also to come to Kathmandu. Sadly, there was one girl we have been looking for before who was going to be coming in and then was nowhere to be found on the day she was to be collected. She was 15 when she was originally contacted. We found out today that we are too late and she has already been taken to India. It is hard to look at her photo that we have in the computer and know we have to delete it, as she will no longer be on our list. We are also bringing in the younger sister of Pabrita, the beautiful girl who was rescued from India about 6 months ago.
