Annie Lobért, the founder of Hookers for Jesus has married Oz Fox from the Christian band Stryper in a ceremony in Las Vegas.
They were married at the Church of South Las Vegas in front of a crowd and an internet audience.
Annie used to be a call girl in Vegas but after finding her faith in religion she founded Hookers for Jesus and then she found her husband.
She had worked as a prostitute for 11 years, making as much as $500 an hour. She said she hit rock bottom when she overdosed on cocaine and everything went black, according to an ABC interview posted on her Web site. She asked Jesus to help her and became what many jokingly call a "porn-again Christian."
She now wants to save women who work as prostitutes and often spends time on night on the Las Vegas strip handing out Bibles and trying to convince the women that there is an alternative to selling themselves.
Hooker for Jesus describes itself as:
an international, faith-based organization that addresses the realities of human sex trafficking, sexual violence and exploitation linked to pornography and the sex industry

I hate the way the news talks about Annie. She is such a sweet person. Prostitute or not she's had a tough life if she's help these girls if Vegas more power to her.

This is wonderful news. I hope that other women who, unfortunately, were led astray into prostitution would follow her footsteps and believe in themselves and have faith in God that they will be guided into turning their lives around would follow Annie as an example and walk the path of the enlightened ones.
