“But when they were oppressed they cried out to you. From heaven you heard them, and in your great compassion you gave them deliverers, who rescued them from the hand of their enemies.”
– Nehemiah 9:27
Latin America
Praise God for the opportunity given to members of a Guatemalan survivor group to support fellow survivors. This week, members of My Story Matters, an established survivor network, met with members of a newly formed survivor chapter supported by IJM and its community partner in another region. The meeting provided guidance on establishing their identity as a movement and building relationships with Public Justice System institutions and community partners to advocate for victims and survivors of violence.
Africa & Europe
Please pray for justice and truth to prevail in the investigation of a protester killed during protests last year in Kenya. Despite clear footage, accountability remains elusive, and key witnesses fear retaliation, making the case complex. Pray for courage for those seeking justice, protection for witnesses, and an end to the ongoing violence and abductions silencing those who speak out.
South Asia
Please pray for an elderly man recently rescued from 25 years of bondage at a sheep farm. A trained district task force found him in poor condition in the countryside. He revealed he had been separated from his wife and children in another state and then forced to work for two decades without any pay. Authorities have taken the farm owner into custody, and they are helping the victim track down his long-lost family. Pray for God’s comfort as this man walks free for the first time and for his journey home at last.
Asia Pacific
Join us in praying for the launch of a new resource by IJM Philippines and the UP Institute of Government and Law Reform. This resource is designed to equip lawyers, prosecutors, law enforcement personnel, policymakers and other stakeholders with essential tools provided by Republic Act No. 11930, a law enacted in the Philippines to strengthen protections against online exploitation. We pray that this resource will aid in more children rescued and protected, more perpetrators held accountable and more survivors able to find the justice they deserve.
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.
We praise God for bringing our Global Leadership Team together this week! We pray that their time has been fruitful, and that they leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated by their time together. We also ask for safe travels as they return home.
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.
