Actually, there have been several ministries of a similar sort .
About 30 (?)years ago, there was an evangelical type minister who used to go into Bourbon Street (New Orleans) strip joints and deliver a sermon during the band rest breaks . He was popularly known as the "Bishop of Bourbon Street" .
About seventy years ago, in some parts of Europe, members of a Catholic group used to approach street-walking prostitutes, urging them to take a "night off" and try to help them change careers . They said it was dangerous work because the pimps took a dim view of their prostitutes taking off from "work".

I was not addressing whether people have ministered to hookers or porn people in the past. What I am talking about are quasi-religious figures who suggest that there is nothing in the aforementioned professions that is inconsistent with scripture. The '70s group called the Children of God, one of the world's most infamous cults, not only engaged in plural marriage, but encouraged their teenage daughters to become "fishers of men" through a practice known as "flirty fishing" -- which, essentially, was luring (more) horny men into the church.

BTW, re Kellie Everts: she has begun her own church, called something like "The Church of God in Us All" or sumpin.
