Become “The New Abolitionist” you were created to be!

 

We believe in the power of God’s love to save, heal and restore.  Human Trafficking affects people of every nation, group and socioeconomic status.  Everyday, men, women and children are trafficked for sex, labor and begging worldwide.  Countless millions are crying out for rescue from poverty, oppression and bondage.  Children around the globe are seeking advocates who will hear their cry.  Extreme Love is committed to bringing God’s light into the darkness.  You can be a part of the transformation of nations – one life at a time.

Offering hope, healing and a new life to the bar girls in Pattaya, Thailand,  Tamar Center was founded in 1999 and seeks to provide hope in a city full of red-light districts.  It also provides healing through love, biblical principals, education and job opportunities for girls leaving the bars.  Over the years, Tamar Center has grown larger which has enabled them to reach out to even more women.  They currently have two centers in Pattaya as well as two newly opened centers in the north east of Thailand.
