Philippines Service Project

With Wipe Every Tear
Oct 18-30, 2026

Project Highlights

A Special Service Project

Have you ever heard the stories of trafficked girls and wished there was a way you could help set them free? Ends Adventures and Wipe Every Tear invite you to see the full scope of what God is doing to break the chains of oppression in the Philippines sex trade industry.  You will gain a great understanding of Wipe Every Tear’s mission by meeting women currently working in the sex trade. The bars exist for foreign customers, so your presence is necessary to enter the bars where we can then help girls escape to freedom. You will also spend time with women in Wipe Every Tear’s care and pray for those in urban poor communities. Most importantly, you will discover more of the Lord’s heart to free and redeem all of His people.

Age Restriction: 21+

Service In the Philippines

Wipe Every Tear exists to bring freedom, hope, and a future to young women in the Philippines caught in the commercial sex trade and human trafficking. We offer safe housing, education, discipleship, and holistic healing to help these amazing women reclaim their lives. 

Human trafficking is a huge issue in the Philippines, with over 700,000 people enslaved. It’s prevalent in tourist spots where the demand for commercial sex is high. Widespread poverty in the nation leaves people vulnerable, and traffickers often target those from indigenous communities or rural areas, tricking them with fake job offers as maids, waitresses, or entertainers.

Wipe Every Tear is dedicated to setting these girls free. We go into bars, offering a way out. For those still trapped, we provide meals and outreach services; we love and honor them through banquets and the opportunity for all-expenses-paid getaways, and we invite them into care. For those in our programs, we provide safe housing, three meals a day, mentorship, college-level education, support for their kids, and spiritual discipleship. We’ve welcomed countless women into our homes, where they find freedom in the name of Jesus, and their lives, and the lives of their children, are forever changed.

We dream of liberating hundreds in captivity, but we can’t do it without your help! That’s where you, the Ends of the Earth Cycling Participants, come in. We need friends who will pray with us, raise funds, and join us in the Philippines. The bars in the sex trade mainly cater to foreign customers, so it’s super important for international participants to help us reach the women stuck in this cycle. We’re inviting you to join us and stand with us because SHE IS WORTH IT, and it’s all for HIS glory!

EXAMPLE:

Visiting a ministry in another country is an amazing way to see and experience what God is doing in His global Church. It can help us grow in our faith, create an awareness of the struggles of our brothers and sisters in Christ, and even open our eyes to new ministry opportunities. It can also be challenging as we enter into a foreign culture, climate, and environment.

It can be challenging to adapt to a new culture, especially when we are not prepared for what we will experience. To help adequately prepare us for an Ends Cycling Service Project, we have identified some factors to help gauge how difficult the service project may be. While it is a helpful tool, it is important to note that this is meant only to help in your initial prayer and decision-making process. When traveling overseas, there are so many things that we cannot account for, so this list should not be seen as a guarantee of difficulty level. For more detailed information, reach out to the Service Project Coordinator.
