on the edge ministry

How on the edge can you get, going to a porn convention and ministering to the girls caught up in the porn industry. Following is a blog entry from xxxchurch.com, please pray for their amazing ministry.
- If I had to choose one word to describe this convention… it would be devastating. It’s devastating how so many people at this show are so shocked to hear of God’s love, it’s devastating the way the men here touch and objectify these girls by asking them things like, “Can I pinch your?” It’s devastating how gorgeous these girls are and they don’t realize how precious they are, and that they are daughters of the King. But it makes it all worth being here when we get to see the reactions of the girls when we tell them we are praying for them and that Jesus loves them. They are so excited about the message we are telling because I think it gives them a little bit of hope in a world that seems hopeless where guys only want them for their bodies and the sexual pleasures they provide. On the back of the cards we put the verse, “The King is enthralled by your beauty…” Psalm 45:11 and my hope is that the verse touched the girls’ hearts and brought them a sense of amazing worth. Words cannot describe how thankful I am to God for what He has done for me, for His incredible love, and that I am able to enjoy this love everyday!!! ~Laci
