"He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
– Micah 6:8
Africa & Europe
Praise God for the opportunity for IJM to represent at the Europol Hackathon hosted in the Netherlands, an event targeting online criminal activities that enable human trafficking. The event took place over five days and involved law enforcement from 26 countries. The focus was on websites and social media where trafficking recruitment was suspected to be taking place. Pray for the learnings from this week to help law enforcement across Europe to be better equipped to respond to and prevent trafficking that is being facilitated over the internet.
Latin America
Praise God for the completion of our high school training program in Bolivia. As the academic year draws to a close in Bolivia, we thank God for the chance to share vital information with adolescents, raising awareness about the widespread issue of sexual violence in their communities. We have provided teenagers from numerous schools in La Paz, Bolivia's capital, with the knowledge of where to seek assistance if they experience sexual violence, along with information about the services available to victims. Pray that God will continue to open the door for this program to expand to more schools next year.
South Asia
Pray for a group of new survivor leaders as they design a vision for their state. IJM is just beginning a new program in the place where these survivors live, and we are working together to design our anti-trafficking program. For many of these survivors, this is the first time they have been invited to raise their voices like this. Pray they feel confident in their perspectives and can get excited about the opportunity to lead. Pray also for good friendships between them, as many will be meeting and collaborating for the first time.
Asia Pacific
Pray for successful operations to result from a recent workshop organized by IJM Philippines. The workshop enabled local law enforcers to investigate referrals and build cases under the close supervision of both local and international experts. Pray for initiatives like this to continue to enable Filipino victims to be brought to safety and for perpetrators to be held accountable.
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.
We continue to lift up prayers for the devastating conflict in the Middle East. We mourn with those suffering through the results of the violence, and we pray that God would reveal himself as a comforter and a provider. We also pray for global leaders as they move to respond, and for an open door for the gospel to be revealed to all nations.
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.
