High-Tea Party Draws More Than 400 Prostitutes to Church

MNN/TV : Sep 19, 2006  Mission Network News

Church was transformed into a place where broken and hopeless women felt love and met Jesus.

Mission Network News reports that in northern Tanzania, Lake Victoria's many islands support a booming fishing industry, which also produces an arena for prostitution.

Burdened to reach the women in the sex trade, the report says Africa Inland Mission's Chris Hamilton, together with local believers and a short-term 'Jesus is Life' team, personally invited the women to a special tea party outreach.

"We had made 240 invitations, and we ran out. And people came back to me and said, 'we didn't have enough invitations' and I said, 'well, that's fine, just go back and invite ladies anyway. They don't have to have an invitation when they come.'"

The next day, 420 ladies showed up for the tea party. Says the report: "Tea, cakes, doughnuts, and door prizes and decorations had transformed a church building into a place where broken and hopeless women felt love and met Jesus."

Hamilton says the goal of the high tea outreach was twofold: "Our first goal was to do a health teaching on HIV and AIDS with a prevention message. And then the second one, and more important, was to specifically share with these ladies the hope that we have in Christ, and that even though some of their lives seem quite hopeless, that we have a message to present to them which turns everything else upside down for them if they're willing to abandon the lifestyle that they live in and accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior."

At the end of the tea party, Hamilton told MNN that 23 women openly professed Christ. "There was a really good result to our outreach. People are soft. They're interested. We've since been back with another 'Jesus is Life' team to do some more follow up and to do some other outreaches in that particular area."

Even though the tea party was held in June, fruit is still being reaped today as a result.
