"The Lord's justice will dwell in the desert, his righteousness live in the fertile field. The fruit of that righteousness will be peace; its effect will be quietness and confidence forever. My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest."
– Isaiah 32:16-18
Africa & Europe
Pray for our teams in Uganda and Kenya that are working to protect women and children from sexual violence and domestic violence. November 25 is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and today also launches the 16 Days of Activism global campaign raising awareness of gender-based violence and the solutions needed to end it. Join us in praying that these next two weeks will bring opportunities to highlight our work alongside partners and increase support in communities for bringing about change.
Latin America
Praise God for the signing of an agreement with a Colombian University to conduct a study analyzing the challenges encountered in criminal investigations within regions marked by elevated levels of violence. The study will enable us to cooperate in the creation of a manual that will be used to train officials on topics such as femicide, domestic violence and sexual violence. Please pray for wisdom to carry out the activities associated with the agreement, so they can lead to a better access to justice for women.
South Asia
Praise God for our first opportunity to train police in a new area where IJM is expanding. It’s tricky to get permission for events like this when we are brand-new in a region, so we are very thankful to the police officials who trusted our reputation and partnered with us. Please pray for the specialized officers we trained on child-sensitive interview techniques, and pray for more opportunities for IJM to train local law enforcement.
Asia Pacific
We are continually encouraged by the song

Jesus, Strong and Kind featuring CityAlight and the Philippine Survivor Network Choir. In March 2023, a small team from CityAlight journeyed to the Philippines to record a new version of the song with the choir made up of survivors of sexual violence and trafficking. We hope you love it just as much as we do!
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.
Please join us in praying for the final month of year-end giving ahead! As individuals begin thinking through their last gifts of 2023, we pray that IJM would come to mind. We also pray that every dollar raised would be utilized efficiently and effectively to fight for the 50 million men, women and children living in modern slavery around the globe.
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.
