“Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, ‘Go in
peace; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the
same way, faith by itself, without action, is dead.”
- James 2:17
Africa & Europe
Please pray for an upcoming training in Romania for police officers and prosecutors.
The training will cover identification, proactive investigations, trauma informed interventions and
victim-centered prosecution of trafficking crimes. The police and prosecutors will also be trained as
facilitators, so that they can effectively share this material and ensuring broader adoption of good
practices that will protect and care for trafficking victims.
Latin America
Praise God for an opportunity to host a joint webinar with the United Nations Office on Drugs
& Crime on providing legal assistance to victims of human trafficking across Latin
America. Over 300 participants and representatives from other NGOs like the Public
Defenders Offices of Brazil and Peru gathered to discuss the importance of interinstitutional
cooperation, with the goals of ensuring access to legal representation, providing holistic care via
multidisciplinary teams and using a victim-centric approach. Pray that this webinar would produce better
cooperation and alignment across the region to protect and restore the most vulnerable.
South Asia
Please pray for our recruitment of a new, top-notch research team to strengthen our work in
South Asia. We are hoping to conduct innovative studies on the prevalence of bonded labor
and on how justice systems are performing, which will help us combat modern slavery more effectively and
in brand new places. Pray we will find brilliant and compassionate women and men for this new team,
especially during the difficulties of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Southeast Asia
Praise God for a successful rescue operation last week that led to the rescue of four
victims of online sexual exploitation and the arrest of one suspected perpetrator. Please continue to
pray for healing and provision for the survivors as they start their journey of restoration and healing
and adjust to a new way of life.
IJM HQ & Global Partners
IJM global headquarters is located in the United
States. IJM has Partner Offices in Australia, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, South Korea, Switzerland, the
Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
Please continue to pray for Race To Rescue, our peer-to-peer fundraiser that is currently
underway in the US and Canada. Participants will be training and fundraising across this
month to run the race against slavery on June 26-27. Pray that as they are preparing, they will be
encouraged in the knowledge that they are having a great impact on rescuing children all around the
world trapped in slavery.
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.
