Zera House

We’ve been busy but wanted to say a big…

THANK YOU. 🤍

We are still overwhelmed by the love and support you showed ZERA House after our volunteer home was broken into and so many of the things inside were stolen.

So many of you rallied around us — ordering from our Amazon Wish List, giving financially, donating household items, sharing our story, and simply reminding us that we are not alone.

What a gift.

Because of your generosity, we were able to replenish so many of the things that were taken and, more importantly, turn that house back into a home. 🏡

And we got to experience the beautiful fruit of that generosity almost immediately.

We were able to host a women’s missions trip in the home, and because of YOU, these women walked into a space that was warm, comfortable, welcoming, and ready to serve.

What was stolen was replaced with something even greater — a tangible reminder of how deeply loved and supported we are.

Thank you for showing up.
Thank you for giving.
Thank you for believing in ZERA House and the women we serve.

We truly could not do this without our incredible community. Thank you for helping make a house a home again. ❤️

Today is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons.

"I've only been here for two months, and I have grown so much."

Those words, spoken by one of our residents, remind us why this work matters.

Human trafficking isn't just something that happens somewhere else—it happens in our communities, to real people with real names, stories, and dreams. But trafficking does not have the final word.

Every day at ZERA House, we witness incredible resilience. We see women rediscover their worth, find hope, heal from unimaginable trauma, and begin building lives filled with purpose. Restoration is possible, and we are honored to walk alongside them on that journey.

Today, we're asking you to stand with survivors.

🤍 Pray for those still being exploited, for every survivor on the path to healing, and for our team as we continue this mission.

🤍 Volunteer your time and talents to help create a safe place where women can rebuild their lives.

🤍 Give financially or shop our wish list. Every gift is more than a donation—it's an investment in the life of a survivor and a tangible reminder that she is seen, valued, and deeply loved.

Together, we can bring hope where there was once despair and help write stories of freedom, healing, and restoration.

A huge thank you to WVVA for helping us share our story!

We’re also so grateful to everyone who has already donated or purchased items from our Amazon Wishlist. Your generosity means more than you know.

If you’d like to help us continue restoring our volunteer house after the recent break-in, you can make a donation or shop our Amazon Wishlist. Both links are in our bio.

Your gift is more than a donation—it’s an investment in the healing, hope, and future of the women we serve. ❤️

Our volunteer house recently experienced a break-in, and we’re heartbroken to share that our washer and dryer, sofas, area rugs, wall décor, and several other household items were stolen.

Thankfully, no one was hurt, and we’ve already been working hard to replace what we can. So far, we’ve spent over $500 just to begin restoring the home.

Today, we’re reaching out to our incredible community for help. If you have a working washer and dryer, a gently used sofa, or other household furnishings you’d be willing to donate, it would make such a difference. LINK IN BIO

If you’re not local or don’t have items to give, you can still help by making a financial donation or shopping our wishlist. Every gift—big or small—helps us restore this home.

Every donation helps us create a safe, welcoming, and comfortable space for the volunteers who faithfully serve alongside the mission of ZERA House.

If you’re able to help—or know someone who might be—please send us a message. Thank you for always standing with our ministry. Your generosity reminds us that even when something is taken away, our community shows up to restore it. ❤️

He did it! 🎉🏃‍♂️🏔️

Adam conquered 13.1 miles through some of the toughest terrain in Glacier National Park—and crossed the finish line in under 3 hours! What an incredible accomplishment.

This run was about so much more than the miles. It was for survivors of s*x trafficking. Because of your generosity, we reached our fundraising goal, and those funds will help provide safe housing, food on the table, keep the lights on, and bring hope to the women we serve at ZERA House.

And a special thank you to Adam for your unwavering support, servant heart, and dedication to ZERA House. Thank you for using your strength to champion survivors and for always being willing to go the extra mile—literally—for this mission. We are so proud of you and so grateful for the way you faithfully stand beside us.

Congratulations on an incredible finish! 💙

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders… and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus.” — Hebrews 12:1–2 🧡

Tomorrow’s the big day. 💙🏃‍♂️

Adam will be running a half marathon through the breathtaking beauty of Glacier National Park as part of Miles for Survivors.

Because of your incredible generosity, he has officially reached his fundraising goal! We are so grateful to every single person who donated, shared, prayed, and cheered him on.

Every dollar raised will go directly to supporting survivors of s*x trafficking at ZERA House—helping put food on the table, keep the lights on, and provide a safe place where healing can begin.

Tomorrow, Adam isn’t just running 13.1 miles. He’s running for freedom, restoration, and hope.

Thank you for believing in this mission and standing with survivors. Now let’s cheer him on all the way to the finish line! 🧡🏔️

Happy Birthday to our incredible Director, Mikey! 🎉❤️ Michael Epling

Today we celebrate a woman who wears so many hats with grace, strength, and compassion. From being the best chicken mom and animal lover around, to being a fierce advocate for survivors of s*x trafficking, Mikey pours her heart into everything and everyone she cares for.

Our residents are blessed not only by her leadership, but by her mentorship, encouragement, wisdom, and unwavering belief in their potential. She has a remarkable gift for helping people see their worth, even when they struggle to see it themselves.

We are so grateful that God brought Mikey into our lives and into the story of ZERA House. Her faith, dedication, and servant’s heart have impacted countless lives, and we are better because of her.

Today, we celebrate the day she was born. Heaven rejoiced then, and we’re rejoicing now. Thank you, Mikey, for being exactly who God created you to be.

Happy Birthday! We love you and are so thankful for you. 💕🎂🐓✨

💜 Welcome Home 💜

Today, another beautiful young woman arrived at Zera House.

At just 19 years old, she is stepping into a brand-new chapter—one marked by safety, dignity, and the opportunity to begin again.

Every survivor who walks through our doors carries a story that matters. And every arrival reminds us that healing starts with something simple but powerful: knowing you are finally safe.

Today, she has a place to call home. She has people who believe in her. She has the chance to dream about a future that belongs to her.

These moments never lose their impact. There is something incredibly moving about watching someone choose courage over fear and take those first steps toward freedom and restoration.

As we welcome her home, we would love your prayers for her healing, strength, and peace in the days ahead.

We also have an immediate practical need. As she begins rebuilding her life, we’re hoping to get her connected with a prepaid phone plan so she can stay connected to support, resources, and opportunities. If you’d like to help meet this need, please reach out to us directly.

Help get her settled here:

Thank you for being part of the village that helps make fresh starts possible.

✨ Today, she is safe.
✨ Today, she is home.
✨ Today, hope begins again.
