We will keep you posted on our opening date but, we  just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate all your time, money and prayers.

~Picking up the Pieces~

    As time nears for the opening of the home, I must say I am a bit anxious. I have been praying for God to prepare the hearts and minds of those girls that He will be bringing to us, but I know that I too must be prepared not only spiritually but mentally. I try to put myself in her shoes..trying to imagine how she feels, but no matter how much I try I will never know the pain that she has been through.
    The story that I am going to share is a true story, and although I don't share it often because of the content of it, God has brought it back to my mind many times as a reminder. A few years ago we had a rental property that we rented to a young woman and her children. She was going through a very difficult divorce and one night her X husband broke in and held them hostage at gun point. This lasted several hours and it ended with him committing suicide. I had the horrible job of going in and cleaning up afterwards and what I saw will be forever etched in my mind and I will always remember the lesson that God taught me. It wasn't so much the blood that really got to me but, the destruction within the home. Walls had holes in them and things were broken where there was a struggle, I even found strands of her hair that he had pulled out. As my eyes looked around at all destruction I could only imagine the horror that took place in this home. As I walked around the living room I saw all these little figurines of people that was some sort of a collection that she had.. And everyone of them was broken, some were shattered more than others. As I got down on my knees I started to pick the pieces up, knowing that they were probably very special to her.( Just like we are to Jesus) I started trying to put the pieces back together, some were broken more than others and all of a sudden I lost it, the reality of what had happened in this home just hours before. This family was so broken now.. things that happened will never be forgotten, I started crying as I desperately tried to put the pieces together.. crying out to God asking Him how this could have ended so tragically. I couldn't find the  pieces to all of the figurines I was so upset and God spoke to me so gently. He said you can only pick up the pieces but , I will mend them together.. all you are required to do is pick up the pieces... I will never forget that lesson, and when I am ministering to someone and I want to "FIX" them I remember what He said to me.. all I am required to do is to pick up the pieces.. or show them His Love.. He will do the rest. I will never experience being a sex slave, being beaten and used 20 to 30 times a day. I will never know what its like to feel like trash, being something that someone just uses and then throws away. I will never know the feeling of being alone I mean really alone in a dark room locked up like some animal. But what I do know is this.... I know how to be the hands and feet of Christ.. I know how to show her Christ's love. I know how to dry her tears. I know how to show her a daddy who loves her, and I know that this is the will of the Father... to reach out and touch those that are lost and broken and to pick up the pieces...and then to leave the rest to Jesus~~

I would love to come and share at your church, civic group, college, or schools. I want everyone to be aware of human trafficking in America.. Maybe you could also help pick up the pieces.... we can also use your tax exempt donations to help us continue this ministry and be the hands and feet of Jesus..We are totally faith based and run only on donations. Thank you and God bless...~debbie~

We need your help!!!

Although the building project is coming to a near end we are falling short of finances to complete.. I know that God hasn't brought us this far to stop now. We are in need of a water treatment system which we really hadn't planned on and also the kitchen flooring and bathroom flooring needs to be purchased the water treatment systems cost will be approximately $2,500.00 and the flooring another $2,000.00. We are still planning on trying to open by the end of this month. I would ask you to please consider donating to this worthy cause.. Maybe your church could do a fund raiser. I would be more than happy to come and share about human trafficking at your church. I know that God is faithful... and I believe that He will do a total miracle in finances. Please join with me in prayer for this and if you can donate send to Oasis of Hope P.O.Box 406 Troy, Pa. 16947. No gift is too small. Thanks so much for standing with us and partnering with Oasis. God's blessings on you.. ~debbie~

Amazing~~~

So much has happened here at Oasis. It is so exciting to see the hand of God on every little thing that is being done here. We had an amazing group of people here this last week from Christ Community Church located in Ridgeville Corners, Ohio. They drove a good 7 hours to be here to put siding on the house and finish painting some bedrooms upstairs. Another group from York, Pa. also was here and a new friend of Oasis Sheleen Weaver from Lancaster, Pa. The group from Ohio had the pleasure of working in all of the wonderful weather from sunshine to freezing rain, to snow. Even though the weather was frightful they worked day and night putting siding on the house. The dedication from this group of people was amazing. I know that they will be life time friends to Oasis. So if you are ever in Ridgeville Ohio..make sure and look up Christ Community Church.. you won't be sorry, you will meet the most amazing people who love to serve the Lord. We have just been blown away by the people that God has sent here to work. People that have no idea who we are, but because of their love of God and His Holy Spirit speaking to them they have come to be a part of what God is doing here in North Central Pa. They believe in giving of themselves. Then there are our good friends from Greece Assemblies of God in New York state with Pastor Pat leading them.. They were our first group that came to do the roof and beginning of tearing out. Some of those men have come back week after week giving of their time and talents. These guys have been so faithful and have promised to see this project through to the end..and they have been true to their word. Words cannot even begin to express my gratitude towards these men and women and youth who have sacrificed their time to come along side of us and make this vision a reality. I thank God every day for His provision on this endeavour. He truly is an amazing God and His mercy's are NEW every morning. I pray that provision will continue to come in not only in man power but as we grow closer to the time of opening this home that finances will flow in so that we can give these girls the care that they deserve because they truly are "Daddy's Girls" and I know HE wants the very best for these precious lives. I just want to say again "THANKS to my HERO'S" for coming to help rescue these girls from the clutches of satans grip, and being a part of truly setting them free in Christ~~

Beautiful Slave

As we get closer to opening up the home for minor girls caught up in sex trafficking my heart continues to break for these young beautiful slaves. I can hardly wait for the doors to open and we can open our hearts to these precious little girls who have been beaten and abused by their traffickers. I know the road won't be easy however looking past the hard hearts that they have had to create for themselves,  and looking on them as Jesus looks upon us will be one of the greatest pleasures we can have at Oasis.. and just as Jesus came to save you and me He came for these precious girls. I hope you watch this video and realize the importance of this home getting finished. We have had volunteers every weekend working diligently. Everyone of them have given their time and talents sacrificially. This weekend we will have heat in the home through our new heating system.. Roof is done, windows are in, heating and central air will be finished this weekend. Dry wall is finished upstairs and bathrooms will be done soon. Kitchen cabinets came last week.. Next weekend we should see more drywall up.. I will be posting pictures by next week. There are no words that can express my gratitude to all the wonderful volunteers... and their families for allowing their husbands to come. We have had volunteers from Ohio, New York, Connecticut, Pa. and New Jersey.. They have come from all over and it has been a wonderful experience getting to know all those faithful servants. May God bless all of them. They are all a part of breaking the chains of bondage for these "Beautiful Slaves."

RENOVATIONS TO THE HOME BEGINS~~~

The beginning of the renovations have begun. We have been blessed with the missions team that came from Greece Assemblies of God. How blessed we felt as around 45 men and women came to Oasis to begin to tear out and renovate the home. They removed all the old roofing and added new, they tore out the 2 old bathrooms and we are adding 2 new ones. New wiring and plumbing have been added. We are also enlarging the kitchen area to make it a teachable area for the girls. We are amazed at Gods faithfulness to this project and how He is networking us together with His people of the same mind. Together we will be able to rescue girls and restore their lives by giving them a home that they can feel safe and secure. We are hoping to be able to open in November if all continues to go as planned. More mission teams are needed. If your church has skilled carpenters, plumbers, electricians and would like to serve God by helping us renovate this home you can contact Debbie by emailing her at debbiesoasis@gmail.com.  God is so faithful and we give Him all the glory for what He has done.
