Seven years ago, Pastor Benny and Wendy Perez prayed that God would open a door for them to help women out of the prostitution lifestyle in Las Vegas. Several years ago, both their heartfelt prayers were answered, and Annie Lobert of Hookers For Jesus started bringing girls from the sex industry to The Church.
"I will never forget the day that I received the amazing phone call from Pastor Benny. With tears in his voice, he shared that he and others had been praying and praying about opening up a safe house for women involved in human sex trafficking. He then asked me if I had girls that needed a place to stay, and would I consider running it...and with tears in MY eyes...I said a big YES!
What a dream come true! I had been hoping that someone would see the need, someone would have enough compassion, grace, understanding and true unconditional LOVE for these women. And that someone became my pastors, Benny and Wendy Perez. My life will never be the same...because these two have that true love, generosity, and faith it takes to be a real Christian. Knowing that there ARE people who care, there ARE people that don't judge, there ARE people that are willing to give second chances to women that society AND, that even some churches throw away...it has given me new hope in my heart for so many more women to be changed! Thank you, Pastor Benny and Wendy, you are changing LIVES by your love and faithfulness. How could I EVER repay you??? I love you both so much, God bless both of you!" Annie Lobert, founder of Hookers For Jesus

What is Destiny's House? Glad you asked!
Destiny's House is a SAFE transitional home for teens/women who want true change in their lives away from the prostitution lifestyle. (high class escorting, street walking, internet sales) This is a NO JUDGEMENT ZONE!!!
These women will also learn that it is the life-changing power of Jesus Christ and His grace...and that ANYONE can start new, no matter what their past may be!
Right now we have one house...but our long-term goals include establishing many Destiny Homes exclusively for women seeking to escape from the sex industry/human trafficking!!! Our desire is to network nationwide to identify and develop local residential homes with programs, resources, assistance for teens/women seeking to recover from an a lifestyle of prostitution/pimping, as well as escape a life in the adult entertainment industry. And finally, it is our desire to work with like-minded organizations to also establish a transitional home for underage girls seeking to leave the sex industry.
It is our heart's desire to assist women transitioning out of the sex industry by providing them a safe, nonjudgmental environment with others like themselves who share a common past and the desire for a brand new start. It is our goal and purpose to address the roots of unhealthy behavioral patterns and poor lifestyle choices that hinder freedom and productivity in the lives of those seeking to leave the sex industry.
The goal is to allow each lady to experience the love of Jesus through various teachings/programs designed to bring healing, recovery and hope.
Destiny's House offers individualized programs for three to nine months.
Upon completing Destiny's House program, we will offer supervised independent living where women will find a job while attending life-skill classes, with the goal of total economic independence.
Hookers For Jesus meet the needs in the Las Vegas community through the following types of ministry:
Evangelism & Outreach
Hookers For Jesus engages in evangelism and outreach through casinos, the street, jail and prison services, hotlines, prostitution prevention classes, individual counseling and literature distribution.
Crisis Intervention and Referral
Destiny's Home (partnered with The Church At South Las Vegas) provides a short-term place to stay for those with life-controlling problems to meet an immediate crisis. Referral services will be provided if young ladies do not meet the Destiny's Home criteria.
Entry to freedom & true healing
During each ladies stay, there will be group and individual counseling. Note: Religion, man made's attempt to reach God, will not be part of our program! Each lady will have a chance to truly emotionally heal by being introduced into a real relationship with Jesus. Bible studies, church, life skills, (GED, collage, finance education) health and wellness classes, and individual mentoring and discipleship will be included in each lady's program.
Overcoming...and finally giving back!
Destiny's Home will provide reintegration into society, employment and Christian fellowship. Finally, each lady will have an awesome oppurtunity to give back, by helping with outreaches with Hookers For Jesus, and volunteer work for the community and The Church.
