Can't buy me love

Am currently feeling inspired by 'A Franciscan Benediction'.

Yes, may God bless me with foolishness of heart, to believe that I can have a hand in changing the world. So to do what others claim cannot be done.

So herein is my life's ambition:

To abolish the practice of prostitution.

I want to do Thailand, Amsterdam, the local brothels in Croydon, Campsie, Burwood. I really don't care where I go, just as long as God can use me to minister to these women.

Where to start though? While I've forever been reading up on studies conducted by university researchers and professors, on backstreets in Norway, brothels in Australia, the red light district of Amsterdam and a recent doco called 'Love For Sale', looking into an American brothel and the experiences of the workers there, I know that I need to suss out the problem firsthand.

More soon x
