Flash floods in Kasese, Uganda — the location for IJM's new project to combat violence against women and children — have affected thousands of people. More than 100,000 are displaced from their homes, staying in schools and churches. The government is working to support them with food and relief services. Pray for their safety and wellbeing, especially in the midst of the pandemic.Latin America

Please pray for the Dominican Republic and the work that IJM has been doing to strengthen the justice system. Pray that God would give wisdom to local authorities and key actors to continue their commitment to respond to sex trafficking cases, protecting and restoring survivors and holding criminals accountable.

Ask for God's mercy and protection over millions of migrant workers suffering during the pandemic. Migrating for work is a necessity for millions of impoverished families in South Asia. But when the COVID-19 lockdowns came into place, these families were stranded away from home and unable to earn an income anymore. They are finally allowed to return home now, but for many this means walking thousands of miles with very little food, shelter or protection. Pray that IJM and our partners could support local governments in caring for these children, women and men during a difficult and heartbreaking situation.

Pray for a successful launch of a study on cybersex trafficking on May 21. For this groundbreaking study, IJM brought together an unprecedented number of experts and partners within the child protection space to better understand the nature and scale of the crime of online exploitation of children in the Philippines. Pray that this study would garner a lot of attention and would mobilize the global community to act together to end this growing crime.
