This “massage trailer” has been on my radar for five months now, and last Friday we broke ground!
It sits in a small area in Illinois where four strip clubs dominate the town.
The first time I saw it, my stomach turned and I’ve never been able to get it out of my mind.
Knowing there aren’t any “massages” taking place in this raggedy trailer, I knew one day we would plunder the devil’s lair.
Then last week, I finally received the go ahead from the Lord!
We’ve only been into one strip club in this area across from the trailer, and it wasn’t a great experience.
We did, however, lead one young girl to Christ, but once I started collecting her phone number, the bar manager intervened and asked us to leave.
Things escalated from 0 to 60, as the female manager said repeatedly, “These girls aren’t kept here against their will!”
In a split second, I calmly diffused the situation, got the manager to smile, and we left on good terms.
But, the crooked cops circling the building continued to follow us until we left town.
We haven’t been back since, until last week.
Niki and I drove to this tiny town, pulled up to the trailer, and rang the doorbell. A man answered and I got a quick glance inside. Vile is all I can say. Trust me, there’s no massage tables in there.
The man quickly warmed to us when we said we had sandwiches and gifts for the girls.
He was appreciative to hear that Jesus loves him, and asked for gift bags for more girls, as he rattled off their names.
A car pulled up and he then introduced us to the “driver.” We gave her a gift bag too.
What we surmised is that the driver takes the girls from the strip clubs to the trailer to meet their “clients,” make their money, and then get back to the clubs.
I had to be very sneaky to get this picture from inside the car, but I just had to prove that these places legit exist!
That women are being bought and sold every single day right under our noses!
And that we won’t stop until all of these women are saved and set free!!
Our conversation outside the massage trailer is a massive win, and we are praying for more opportunities to minister there.
I’m praying for more favor in this particular town, for access to these girls, and for the corruption to cease, in Jesus’ name! Let your glory be made manifest, Lord!!!
