FreeSet

This past week I had the chance to hear Annie Hilton speak twice. Once at Bethel's chapel and once at Wooddale Church in Eden Prairie. She and her husband Carrie started FreeSet, a company which free's women from prostitution in Kokuta, India. Then moved into a red-light districe called the Sonogocci neighbor hood and have now been teaching women to sew bag and t-shirts along with basic educational skills such as reading, writing, and business.

This is a fantastic company and I support their work 100%. Check out their website.

A lady sang this song by Britt Nicole and it not only relates to what FreeSet is doing, but also who I want to be.
Set the World On Fire
I wanna set the world on fire
Until it's burning bright for you
It's everything that i desire
Can i be the one you use?

I am small but
You you are big enough
I am weak but
You you are strong enough to

Take my dreams
Come and give them wings
Lord with you
There's nothing i cannot do
Nothing i cannot do
I wanna feed the hungry children
And reach across the farthest land
And tell the broken there is healing
And mercy in the father's hands
My hands my feet
My everything
My life my love
Lord use me

I wanna set the world on fire
Wanna set the world on fire yeah

Take my dreams
Come and give them wings
Lord with you
There's nothing i cannot do no
