"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
– Galatians 6:9
Asia Pacific
Praise God for the Philippines' President Marcos Jr. and his order to strengthen efforts to combat the online sexual exploitation of children. Two weeks ago, he directed government agencies to prioritize child protection by improving legal measures and law enforcement. "Let us make the Philippines the absolute worst place for those who exploit children," he said. This action demonstrates a firm commitment to safeguarding vulnerable children from exploitation.
Africa & Europe
Praise God for new colleagues who have joined our European Anti-Trafficking program recently, and pray for their successful integration into the team. Pray for God to bless them with wisdom, strength and courage to successfully carry on our work and mission at IJM.
Latin America
We praise God for the certification of 14 new community-based advocates who will support victims and survivors of violence in San Miguel, El Salvador. In partnership with Universidad Gerardo Barrios, IJM has trained these 14 women to identify cases of violence against women and children in their communities. When such cases arise, these advocates will guide victims and survivors to ensure they receive timely and appropriate help.
South Asia
Praise God for some great media coverage of a brave survivor leader and small business owner. She and her family were once enslaved at a rice mill—and they even lost their 1-year-old daughter in a tragic accident—but today she has become a testimony of transformation. She’s a key voice in the local survivor network in her community and helps build self-help groups to connect other women with dignified work. Pray that her story will inspire local officials and the general public to keep up the fight for justice!
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.
Please join us in praying for our colleagues and their families who have been impacted by the recent hurricanes. We ask for God’s protection, strength and provision as they navigate the challenges of recovery. May He grant peace and comfort to those who have lost homes, experienced disruptions or are facing uncertainty. We also lift up the broader communities affected, praying for swift restoration, safety and unity as they rebuild.
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.
