Magdalene's fights against human trafficking and sexual exploitation of women through education and awareness, survivor support, and related initiatives because we believe everyone deserves an opportunity to live an abundant life free of exploitation.
To fight human trafficking by educating, empowering and equipping survivors and other community members for the betterment of our society.
We join with Jesus in his mission,
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations. Isaiah 61:1-4, NIV
Because we adhere to the beliefs and teachings of Jesus, it is our goal to offer compassion, providing excellence in care without judgment and with great respect. It is because of His grace and work in our lives that we endeavor to create an environment of transformative care through the comprehensive services offered to our participants and in partnership with our local community. Our faith compels us to think the best of our participants and partners and seek to find strengths in them so we strive to create an environment for restoration. We seek to equip ourselves and others to provide the utmost care for ourselves, our staff, our organization, and ultimately the women we serve. We will always seek to respond to our participants, our colleagues, and the public in ways honoring God and consistent with our faith.
Magdalene’s was born out of the hearts of a sisterhood of women who have a foundation of belief in Jesus Christ as our savior and the belief that any lasting healing is only through the work of our God. We do not require survivors to share that belief. We will share that the driving force of our work is His loving hand in our own lives and His call to share that love with others.
Magdalene’s does not deny care or adapt the quality of care based on the faith convictions or spiritual beliefs of the survivor.
Magdalene’s does not force clients to personally engage in faith, but will respect each survivor's individual journey as it relates to faith exploration and personal convictions.
