| Praise God for a special gathering with police forces from the Northern Triangle, where IJM presented the Field Mentoring Program. This initiative, already being implemented in parts of the region, equips experienced investigators in cases of violence against women and children to mentor junior officers. IJM is now expanding the program across Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. Please pray that all proposals for implementation are approved and that the program brings lasting protection to those most vulnerable. |

| Praise God for Evelyn Moeck’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer of IJM Germany, and for the wealth of experience and deep faith she brings to this role. Join us in praying for Evelyn and her family as they step into this new season, that God would bless them with wisdom, peace and strength. Praise God also for Dietmar Roller’s faithful leadership over the past 15 years, and for his continued support during this time of transition. |

| Pray for our search for a credible research partner to assess the scale of child sex trafficking in one of our newest programs. We are looking for quality researchers who understand this context and can help study the scale and nature of this crime. This data will be so important for us to convince local authorities for the need to act. Ask for God’s wisdom as we select a research partner from several promising candidates! |

| Praise God for the powerful collaboration between Erin Canino, former Legal Fellow at IJM Philippines, and Eric Favila in spotlighting the financial sector’s critical role in combating online sexual abuse and exploitation of children (OSAEC). Their article in The Philippine Star
reveals how financial systems can be transformed from passive conduits into active defenders of vulnerable children. Praise God for the growing movement to equip banks and payment providers to detect and disrupt these heinous crimes before they happen—because the solution is not beyond reach. |
| 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 pray for all our local staff who will travel for meetings, conferences or to the field this summer. Ask God to grant them travel mercies, protection and good health as they go. Pray also for smooth logistics, timely connections and meaningful impact in every place they serve. |
