"Lord, be gracious to us; we long for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of distress."
– Isaiah 33:2
Latin America
Praise God for the opportunity to conduct a workshop with the Peruvian police last week. High-ranked police officials who previously attended IJM trainings met to work on a uniform approach to investigating cases of child violence and caring for victims throughout the criminal justice process. We are very grateful for these officials' commitment. Please pray that this training will have a positive impact on children's lives and communities. Also, pray for the safety and healing of children affected by violence.
Africa & Europe
Pray for the IJM Kenya team as they collect data to understand what progress is being made toward stronger protection of victims of police abuse of power. The study will include data from households, community institutions, survivors, government justice system partners and others. Pray for meaningful data that will help us and our partners to continue shaping the program in Kenya to support effective protection for the most vulnerable so that people are not abused in the first place.
South Asia
Pray for workers in the brick industry across South Asia. This is typically the time when brick-making work finishes before the summer monsoons—but it's also a time when brick kiln owners try to manipulate their workers. Corrupt owners might cheat workers out of fair pay or refuse to let them leave at the end of the season. This traps families in desperate conditions and years of bonded labor slavery. Pray for local authorities to stay vigilant for any kiln owner breaking the law and pray for swift rescue in any case that emerges.
Asia Pacific
Pray for the impact of a recently released documentary that spotlights the global crisis of online child sexual abuse. French-German broadcaster ARTE TV produced the documentary with the support of IJM offices in the Philippines and Germany. Pray that the documentary will raise awareness about this weighty topic, and those who watch it will feel compelled to support the work against impunity.
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, Singapore, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
Pray for rest and restoration this summer for IJM Staff. Pray that this season will bring peace and fill anyone feeling drained. In the midst of many incredible opportunities, pray that those who are taking time off will be able to experience relaxation and that the summer months will rejuvenate teams.
