Elijah Rising

Elijah Rising is one of those companies that truly lives out what it believes. The company's culture reflects this; it is honest, hardworking, and passionate about ending human trafficking. It excels at raising awareness among the masses and equipping and training people to love and care for those who feel trapped. Elijah Rising is a trustworthy, excellent company.

I have read stories from several of the women Elijah Rising has helped. They are incredible stories. This organization is truly doing God’s work. I pray God continues to use them to stop Human Trafficking.

I choose to volunteer with and support Elijah Rising because of the incredible work they do to serve the most vulnerable in our community. "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed" and the work that Elijah Rising performs is part of fulfilling that promise. Their staff is fully committed to the mission. Their work is meaningful and impactful in the local community through awareness, intervention, and restoration, but also Elijah Rising is a recognized leader in the larger effort to combat trafficking through research, policy advocacy, and partnership with other organizations in the fight.

I have been involved in the mission at Elijah Rising for the past two years. I have volunteered at this organization numerous times, and have seen firsthand the amazing culture and vision of ER. Their goal is to reach women caught in the life of sex trafficking and offer them a way out, and they meet their goal with every precious woman they help to leave ‘the life’ of prostitution. I am so grateful to Elijah Rising for the role they play in bringing love to the unloved and hope to the hopeless. They truly are serving the least of these, and so by extension they are serving Jesus himself.

The people who work and serve at Elijah Rising have the biggest hearts of any I’ve ever met. They pour selflessly into the community and I’m honored to have received their services and added them to my list of safe people.

Elijah Rising, is truly an amazing place to be if you want help dealing with trauma from human trafficking...the staff is compassionate and are strong believers in what God can do as he restores lives. I truly recommend this program to human trafficking survivors. My closest friend completed this program. I have seen the growth due to ER!! wonderful job!!!

In 2022 I went to their Gala where and was so inspired by how they are doing real work to combat human trafficking. At one point they brought their Intervention teams up on stage and we prayed over them before they went out to the minister to women who are actually being trafficked! They are truly being the hands and feet of Jesus!

Thank God for this program. It molded me into the God- fearing women that I am today. I was lost and life had no meaning. I wanted the help but didn't know programs like this existed. Because of ER and their compassionate staff, I am a productive and responsible member of society!! ER rocks!!

I had the honor and privilege to heal at the Elijah Rising Restorative Care Program. My life had been filled with trauma and uncertainty, but when I came to the program, I had the opportunity to breathe for the first time and truly heal from my past. I gained a supportive family and a home. Elijah Rising not only changed the course of my life but has also transformed the lives of many others.

I love what they stand for! What they do is so important.

Please be careful of non-profit organizations. According to them they don’t have to abide by HIPPA, with exception to the Psychologist on staff, which means the rest of the staff can give your personal, identifying, information (location, cell phone number, legal name change, etc.) to people they don’t have permission to. No matter what an organization may think of you, they still shouldn’t give out your information to people they don’t know. No release of information papers were signed. At the very least it’s unethical. They have put my safety greatly at risk.

I was introduced to Elijah Rising in 2016 when we were looking for an organization to support financially in the anti-sex trafficking space. After meeting with the ED and Operations Manager, we could instantly see that God had his hand on this organization. It became apparent that Elijah Rising was going to have a significant and lasting impact on the lives of women rescued from sex trafficking. I immediately began to volunteer, then after a couple of years got asked to be on the board where I continue to actively serve. I have had the pleasure of having a front row seat watching God perform miracle after miracle, changing lives for eternity. Elijah Rising continually stives to operate excellently with a passion for its mission, always providing a high level of transparency underpinned with unequivocal ethics. I am very proud and honored to be part of this awesome organization!

I love this organization and the people who work there. I have had the opportunity to see their team in action, both on the street and in the office. They work with excellence and passion towards an audacious mission, and they do it with love and humility.

The staff of Elijah Rising has always been very passionate and dedicated in their fight against human trafficking. They are very strong in their faith in Christ and they seek Him in all that they do. I love that Elijah Rising is hands on with going to places to reach out with love and compassion to those who are being trafficked and with restoring lives through their Restorative Care Program. Elijah Rising is a great organization and ministry. It is a privilege to volunteer with them and to be a part of what they do.

While I’ve not been personally involved with Elijah Rising, I am well aware of the work they do. Human trafficking has to break the heart of God so I have to believe the work done by this organization has to be near and dear to the heart of God. I would challenge you to support this organization in any way you can

Elijah Rising is an incredible organization raising awareness and supporting survivors of human trafficking. Every employee and volunteer work toward the organization's mission with so much love and kindness. I am amazed at the work this organization has done and willl continue to do in the fight against human trafficking!

Our church has supported Elijah Rising for several years, and every time I interact with them, I am in awe of their integrity and excellence in everything they do. The genuine care for sex trafficking survivors and the dignity and love they show when caring for them are unmeasurable. Transparency when managing resources is another top characteristic of Elijah Rising and gives me the confidence that our donations are well-managed and directed to the needs of the survivors.

I have volunteered with Elijah Rising for several years. This organization operates with great integrity and compassion. Their leadership is among the best!

I absolutely love the heart of Elijah Rising and everything that they stand for. I stand in awe of their pursuit of justice where others have either turn a blind eye or simply are indifferent. I have volunteered with Elijah Rising for several years. It is impossible to not leave changed and with a heart that goes beyond compassion. It is a kind of heart break that leaves you wanting to fix all the injustices right there and then. It is simply humbling to say I get to volunteer with Elijah Rising.

Elijah Rising is working to equip and train individuals and other organizations to care for some of the most overlooked people in our society. Through prayer, awareness, intervention, and restorative care, Elijah Rising is combatting sex trafficking; working to prevent trafficking as well as to help restore those affected by it.

I've had the privilege of working with Elijah Rising since its inception. Knowing it from the inside I am pleased to share that this organization's leadership upholds Biblical values while also striving to maintain excellence from an organizational perspective. It has been an honor to participate in Elijah Rising's growth, development, and continued expansion as we serve people who have suffered intensely at the hands of this outrageous evil.

I am thankful that this organization, Elijah Rising, is faithfully committed to helping those that are affected by trafficking. They believe in the power of prayer and trust the Lord as they carry out His work.
Amazing!

Last spring I had the privilege of interning with Elijah Rising in the Social Enterprise department. The Elijah Rising staff diligently seeks the Holy Spirit to lead them in all facets of their program. As a result, they are filled with radical and genuine love, kindness, and care for the ladies they serve. The level of thought and intentionality that they put into every action displays how deeply they desire to love, support, and empower the ladies in their program. They are doing incredible work by transforming lives through prayer, awareness, intervention, and restoration!

I have had the privilege of working with this outstanding group of people for close to 5 years. Elijah Rising is most definitely a top tier organization that cares very deeply about ending sex trafficking.

Truly remarkable organization. Staff and volunteers are focused and professional in everything they do. Have seen first hand their commitment to providing safe and stable environment to their clients. Elijah Rising is true to their mission!

Elijah Rising is the non-profit I choose to volunteer with, because they are so close to the heart of the Father. They are Christ-centered. They do not set out to “save” people or turn people into projects… they set out to love others through genuine relationships. The women we serve continuously thank us for HOW we serve them. They know they are loved and valued - and through these relationships, they become empowered to make choices that change the trajectory of their lives.
I am honored to serve with Elijah Rising.

My SIL invited me to go on a van tour with her church group a couple years ago. Not knowing much about it, I decided to join her and I’m so glad I did. The people who took us on the van tour were knowledgeable, kind and helpful answering our many questions. I appreciate the work Elijah Rising does and the awareness they bring to our community.

I love this good and what it stands for. I hope God will use this group to do a wonder in the lives of many!

I’m so thankful to God that Houston has Elijah Rising to help the precious women who have been rescued from Human Trafficking. I am amazed at the services available to them through their recovery process. They are helping God’s children to come out of the darkness of abuse and into the light of Christ!

I praise God for this amazing Christ centered, Holy Spirit lead ministry that reaches into the lives of people in need of His saving power and the protection of His amazing all-sufficient grace!

This non-profit is in the promises that GOD fulfills as he delivers us from the evils of this world. You never actually know or understand how close, how real, and how threatening human-trafficking is. It's literally in your neighborhood! It could be next to your grocery store, across the street from your child's school, or even right next door to you.

Provides critical, high quality services with integrity and transparency.

This organization is run by people who have a heart for helping others. They are Christ centered and focused on what God has called them to do. Supporting them with time and funds is well worth it. Wish I could do more! They are God’s angels!

I volunteer with Elijah Rising on a monthly basis. I have continually volunteered with this organization for over 3 years.This organization maintains the highest level of integrity and honor. The staff and leadership are singular in focus and purpose and they are exceptionally responsible with finances and other resources. Elijah Rising stands as one in reference to faithful and diligent management of what God gives them! 5 out of 5 stars excellence!

Elijah Rising is a nonprofit pursuing and executing in excellence the work of supporting one of the most marginalized and overlooked demographics in the city of Houston. Their ability to inform, equip and train individuals/groups in understanding how to care for women in the sex-trafficking world exceeds many I have encountered across the country. Elijah Rising is helping establish a new precedent of care, restoration and empowerment for the disenfranchised and abused.

Elijah Rising does incredible work saving the lives of women sold into sex trafficking. I’ve seen them shut down illegal brothels and rescue so many women. Their work is important and I’m so grateful for these amazing people and their heart to serve and save.

Elijah Rising has weathered many storms but in that they have demonstrated a heart of prayer showing a reliance on God as their provider and protector.

I love the work Elijah Rising does. In addition to practical care for those rescued and recovering from immense trauma, they help raise awareness so others can join in to help make changes.

So many lives have been transformed by their efforts.

Fortunately and recently, my wife and I enjoyed the privilege of working alongside this organization. As outreach coordinators for our churches home group, we partnered with Elijah Rising to serve within our community.

We already had an established relationship with Elijah Rising personally, and even longer through our church. Additionally, my wife has donated and served via channels of vocational referrals and utilizing gifting opportunities to grow awareness and fund raise through their organizations online and in-person store.

They’re staff is unparalleled and outrageously compassionate. Serving in the community has been eye opening and humbling to the core. The love exemplified through this team mirrors our Fathers love for us. What a bright spot in this world.

Elijah Rising Team:

Thank you for working diligently to fight sex trafficking, grow woman into lives beyond their past, and bring awareness to those protected from the snare. Elijah Rising is truly a God send; a selfless, servant minded, God-honoring, organization.

MJ, specifically, leads her teams well and shines brilliantly as a proven warrior for the kingdom. We’re so grateful to share this review.

In my opinion, Elijah Rising is one of the most caring and attentive organizations I've ever had the honor to work with. I've been fortunate enough to assist them in a myriad of ways over the past year and have witnessed first-hand the bottomless wealth of compassion for not only those enslaved in sex trafficking, but to anyone in unfortunate circumstances. The sense of justice and acceptance held by the staff is both awe-inspiring and humbling. They challenge me to impact this world for the better.

Elijah Rising is meeting a huge need for a huge issue. Their team is very compassionate and motivated to live out their mission! Thank you!

I cannot fully put into words the amazing, transformational work this organization does for our Greater Houston community. Not only is Elijah Rising an awareness/advocacy organization for survivors of sex trafficking, but they also wake up everyday, roll up their sleeves, and do something about it! Please take a look at their website and reach out to their team to learn more and ways you can support this amazing Christian organization.

This is a highly needed organization in TX and is essential to those women trying to recover from commercial sexual exploitation. They are to be commended for their dedication to this area. We are proud to be able to assist Elijah Rising in their efforts by providing our insurance services to all their exposures to protect their bottom line for the benefit of all their non-profit work and the generous donations their sponsors provide..

Elijah Rising is continually advocating for the abolition of human trafficking in our city, state and nation. They are on the front lines of reaching women caught in the life and giving them access to the resources that they need to move forward in healing. It is an honor and privilege to support this mission.

I found Elijah rising when I was seeking the truth about human trafficking. I listened to all of the current podcasts and became a supporter because I honor their practices of a- prayer driven (non-denominational), non -judgmental, wrap around healing approach. If you are confused by all of the controversy of this topic, You might find that this group is doing incredible work! I’m proud to be a regular donor!!
