"I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.
– Ezekiel 34:16
Africa & Europe
Praise God for the launch of the Global Survivor Network chapter in Uganda which will strengthen our work with survivors as they plan opportunities to share their stories to bring change in the community. Pray for the overall work with survivors of sexual violence and domestic violence, specifically that we can find a good partner in the church for provision of shelter care for those in need who might be fleeing an unsafe home. We also pray that we can find partners to work with on the livelihood component of survivor groups, as providing survivors with the means to earn an income is incredibly helpful in reducing dependency on an abusive partner.
Latin America
Praise God for the participation of IJM Bolivia in Open Your Eyes, a national campaign to raise awareness about sexual violence. During the campaign, we joined efforts with other civil organizations and shared in the local news about the initiatives that IJM offers to victims of violence. We shared about Grupo Fénix (an IJM survivor network chapter) and AVES & PROBOS (a network of professionals that offer psychological and legal support to victims). Please pray that God will open new opportunities to share our initiatives locally and nationally.
South Asia
Pray for our ongoing search for new grassroots NGOs to join as partners in our work. Our mission of protecting people in poverty from human trafficking in South Asia will only be successful with the wisdom, insight and collaboration of these local experts. Pray we can make the right connections and find creative new ways to work together on rescue, restoration and strengthening justice systems.
Asia Pacific
Please pray for plea bargaining breakthroughs in multiple upcoming cases involving the online sexual exploitation of children. Pray that each of these young survivors is spared from testifying in court at the risk of re-traumatization. We ask for God’s protection over the hearts and minds of these children, and for justice to be realized in each case.
IJM Global Office & Partners
The IJM global office is located in the United States. IJM has Partner Offices in Australia, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, South Korea, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
Praise God for a moment of reflection as staff took time to remember what God has done and to pray for what He will do in the years to come. What is impressed upon us after witnessing decades of countless miracles is that we lack the imagination for the full greatness of what will come as an answer to our prayers. Hallelujah.
The updates we share on survivors or their cases can become sensitive over time. To respect and protect
them, please refrain from posting these prayer requests online.
