*taken from Kim Daniels', fellow WR staff and proclaimer of justice, blog.  One of the ways God uses her to do this is through beautifully crafted videos that pierce you and leave you with a better understanding of the Father's heart. There is a cameo by Jim Larson, the founder of the Well and who I have been communicating with for the past few months.

hen girls who have found themselves working in the Thailand bars, often as prostitutes, reach the point where they are looking for a way out, there is a place for them to go. 'The Well' is a home, a family, a workplace, a school, with a goal in mind: to restore that which has been in shambles, reconcile that which has been broken, and give hope where it has been deferred. 
 
Bangkok, Thailand has thousands of bars, with thousands of women who believe that selling themselves is their only option. Some have been forced into this life; some have been trafficked and work because of fear. The Well is a safe place where women can begin to build another life for themselves and their children, learning life skills by making high quality jewelry and crafts as an occupation. But she learns more than life skills here....
She learns that her intrinsic value has nothing to do with what men will pay for her. Instead, it is because of Who she belongs to and Who loves her heart and soul enough to pay the ultimate price out of selfless ambition; He did not pay money for her. He gave her His life.
 
She learns that her identity is not 'prostitute', 'dancer', 'pretty lady'.
Her identity is 'Daughter', 'Beloved', 'Chosen', and 'Cherished'.
She is 'Narimon', the Thai word for what Jesus named her: ‘pure', ‘immaculate', ‘flawless', ‘innocent', ‘spotless', ‘stainless', ‘queen'.
