After volunteering with Out of Darkness in 2015 Mr. Meritt began to see the importance of the role the men play in rescuing exploited women. He says, “God put a burden and desire in my heart to challenge the men inside and outside the Church to answer this call. Redeeming Men Ministries was birthed out of this desire to see more men get involved. Our aim is to challenge the men to raise awareness for Commercial Sex Exploitation and to know the important role they play.”
