On Friday 17 December 2020, Light of hope, in partnership with DTCC Ladies Ministry, hosted a Year End function and spoiled the S*x Workers of East London, whom Light of Hope is assisting in a rehabilitation program of Self - betterment, skills Development etc. Light of Hope has adopted this project to help all these ladies whom have opted to conditioning themselves to this life style, and helping them to see that there is a way out.
The event was held at Downtown Cristian Centre where the ladies were treated like the Queens they are. Our guest Speaker for the event, Nopinki Mafusini, through her testimony, gave all the ladies sound advice, brilliant encouragement and spoke hope to those that feel that their lives were facing a brick wall. The program was well organized and our MC for the occasion, Philiswa Siko, kept every one who attended, entertained and fresh. The food and beautiful décor was also the highlight of the occasion. The ladies were presented with Christmas gifts and tokens to help them along during the Christmas season.
We thank God Almighty that this program has empowered and encouraged so many women of all ages who are prostituting themselves to make a living. Light of hope has held numerous sensitization and empowering programs with the ladies this year. Many have turned over a new leaf and have empowered themselves by way of finding honest jobs, some women have even gone back to their husbands and families and have quit the life of the streets.
