Melissa’s Story – “Becoming a Sex Slave” & Salvation

This video is about a woman named Melissa Woodward and how she became a sex slave, her struggles, and how she got saved and got out. Her story seems like it came straight from a Hollywood movie but sadly this was her real life; and it all happened right here in America.

Melissa will be reading the comments on this page and we would love all GodFruits readers to leave her a personal message below to show your support for her cause and visit her website at: http://forthesakeofone.org – We want to say “thank you” and praise Melissa for coming to Christ and using her story to help others and save lives.

More About Melissa: She is founder of the non-profit FortheSakeofOne.org and spokeswomen for the National Child ID Program?  Also FSO is opening “Isaiah House” a recovery home / safe house – Summer 2012 for child victims of sex trafficking in America.

We desire grealty to raise awarness in this country of what is happening, and do all we can to do so, but Melissa’s greatest need right now is prayer and financial support for Isaiah’s House.  You can learn more and donate at: http://forthesakeofone.org/Isaiah-House-Efforts.html

Melissa, thank you for making a difference each day in other peoples lives by being a Jesus chic. You are indeed an OVERCOMER.
Vivian Smith commented on June 26, 2012:
Melissa, Thank you for honoring Jesus by your transformation inside and out. Only our Redeemer can truly set anyone free. Forgiving others is truly a reminder that our past is our past, whether we choose it or not, yet forigiving others IS a choice of the "JESUS" girl or guys heart. Knowing you by watching this video allows me to pray for you, your family, your reaching out to others and helping them have a place to change their lives. What has been taken away by Satan has been redeemed and given back by trusting in Jesus. Love you girl...keep up the faith and sharing. My life was truly touched by this video.

Hi Melissa Thanks for your openness and courage. God has certainly got His hand upon you. I was tremendously touched listening to your story. I pray that memories of the past will be blotted out. Let us pray for all the kids out there in these shocking circumstances. Bless you Melissa you are a courageous woman. Bob Nash
Melissa commented on May 09, 2012:
Thank you for your prayers and comments but I am only a vessel, I see myself as only a Christian that has moved outside the four walls of my church to take a stand and say we aren't buying it! These children are not prostitutes, they are His children and we must be there voice! Please follow our website and learn more about this horrific crime, when we know the facts then we should be propelled to action! Every 40 seconds a child is sold into sexual slavery, the time is now we must react! God bless you for watching, praying and writing!
Lesina Levy commented on May 09, 2012:
Dear Melissa, Thank you for being so brave. You suffered so much pain yet you are as brave as the dauther of the King of Heaven and Earth!!! Keep up your faith and love and prayers for your family. Those ugly selfish mean abnormal human beings need to be brought to the light of Christ. The remedy is to abort and put a stop to all these 'SEX TRAFFICKING' everywhere and America as stated in Melissa's testimony!!!!!, getting to the route of the organisations through their principals. May they all suffer in hell. Though this is the right punishment for them - hell, please we still need to pray so that these underground movements and dirty industries are all burnt to the ground and their principals exposed and are brought to justice. No wonder so many kids are lost &amp; just disappear - these must be the hiding places. We SHOULD AND MUST HAVE AN AWARENESS CAMPAIGN FOR SEARCH OF THESE UNDERGROUND INFAMOUS INDUSTRIES. Once children are lost we have to look at these places underground. THANK YOU MELISSA FOR BEING SO BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS IN COMING FORWARD WITH YOUR STORY WHICH HAS ALERTED SO MANY PARENTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN. We can all say a little prayer to the Lord to STOP ALL THESE SEX TRAFFICKING, "Please Lord "Jesus I Trust In You" stop these animalistic industries and expose all its principals", Jesus I Trust In You, Jesus I Trust In You, Jesus I Trust In You" to stop and bring to light these industries and their principals.
Masayo commented on May 08, 2012:
This is unbelievable story in this 21st century. I cannot even immerging what she had to go through since little child. How awful to be treated as an animal. I cannot understand there are so many men who would abuse these little girls. They are sick to their head but they too have their own daughter but they cannot see the same little girls as their own daughter. Melissa's case is she didn't really have parents either. Care less about her and she had to survive through the tortures. She is finally saved by God and I thank God for her being saved. I feel so angry about these animal men. They should be tortured as she has and let them taste the medicine.
Melissa commented on May 08, 2012:

Melissa commented on May 08, 2012:

LP Johnson commented on May 08, 2012:
I was so touched and moved by your story! You are a true and living testimony of the power of the love of Jesus to bring wholeness to the broken and Light to those living in darkness! My prayer for you is that you continue to go forth sounding the trumpet against the demons who are perpetrating these atrocities against children and letting God use your voice and your hands to carry out His will!

How harrowing, Melissa I am the voluntary CEO of a UK charity Act Against Injustice, what our went through is what we are fighting, our website is: www.act-agianstinjustice.org
Melissa commented on May 08, 2012:
Thank you ladies for the encouraging words, as I often say this is Gods story I only play a part! My prayer and dream is to see every child who has been put thru the fire for God to touch and save for what He can do for me He is able and ready to do for all who call upon His holy name! God bless you both and please spread this so that others may know the God who did miracles thousands of years ago is still performing miracles today and wherever you have been or whatever you have done thru Christ you can be an overcomer.
Crystal commented on May 08, 2012:
