"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
Latin America
Praise God for 57 women who graduated as judicial counselors in Peru. After participating in training, they are now accredited as volunteers for the judiciary over the next two years. They will play a pivotal role in making the justice system more accessible to vulnerable populations. Throughout the course, they learned about violence against women and children, and how to provide guidance, accompaniment and follow-up to individuals in their communities. Pray for these women, many of whom are working mothers and are juggling many other responsibilities.
Africa & Europe
Pray for justice in the case of a woman in Western Uganda who was killed by her partner. Pray that her young children and immediate family will find comfort during this difficult time, and pray for our teams that work closely with survivors, for strength and resilience as they interact with and offer support to other women from this region who knew her and have been impacted by her death. Pray for IJM staff as they take on the case.
South Asia
Please pray over final preparations for our baseline studies across South Asia to better understand the scale and severity of bonded labor. These widespread, in-depth studies are crucial for helping IJM and our partners focus on the hardest-hit areas and industries to bring families to safety. They will also help us measure our impact over time and refine our model to help more people, faster. Pray for final methodology designs with our research partners and for swift roll-out in the field. Ask for God’s wisdom and divine accuracy over these important research projects.
Asia Pacific
Praise God for the Philippine government’s renewed commitment to ending violence against children, specifically the online sexual abuse and exploitation of children. Last week, IJM joined the Philippine delegation at the Global Ministerial Conference, a series of dialogues with survivor leaders and subject matter experts on how to protect children from sexual violence offline and online. We are grateful for the government's efforts to continue to push back against this crime across the country.
