Praise God for the action of Romanian authorities to carry out searches and preventive arrests in a cross-border sexual exploitation case. This successful operation to dismantle an organized crime group that was operating cross-border in Europe is a great step toward greater accountability for the crime of trafficking. Pray for the next steps of this case, for justice to be done in court and for healing and recovery of the trafficking victims.

Praise God for a Local Fair IJM supported in Guatemala. The fair, organized by one of our partners, gathered 345 children and adolescents from schools in Western Guatemala. The children learned where to seek help if they suffer physical or sexual violence, what people and organizations are there to help them, and how to receive care services. Please pray for the students and organizations that participated in the fair, so that the information received can help prevent cases of violence and help those who might be suffering it.

Pray for our team disseminating a critical new study with our stakeholders in the next two weeks. This study captures a remarkable reduction in human trafficking achieved by the local government, IJM, and our partners in the last 15 years. We are so excited to share this good news and encourage the ongoing work of justice. Pray we can connect with all of our key stakeholders and gather their feedback for the road ahead.
