“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
- Ephesians 6:12
Africa & Europe
Praise God for the persistence of IJM investigators and police in tracking down and arresting a suspect in Uganda who had skipped bail. The man is suspected of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the survivor had been unable to attend court and the case was nearly dropped. With this re-arrest, we are praying that when restrictions ease in July the court case can proceed without delays.
Latin America
Continue praying for the Latin America region as COVID-19 is hitting several countries with a third wave. Pray for healing for those currently battling for their lives due to the virus, and for strength and stamina for people on the frontlines working within overwhelmed hospitals and health systems that are struggling to provide oxygen, medicine or even enough ICU beds. Pray for wisdom for governments officials so they find ways to support and protect their people, especially families who have lost their income due to lack of jobs or health, or who are employed but do not have enough to pay for the medical treatments their loved ones need. Finally, continue praying for the most vulnerable, women and children, who in addition to the pandemic are experiencing many situations of violence at
home. Pray that they will not lose hope and they would receive the help they need.
South Asia
Please continue to pray for comfort and peace for our South Asian staff who continue to lose loved ones to COVID-19. The situation is improving in many cities and more people are able to get vaccinated, but so many communities are still struggling. Pray especially for one staff member who has lost her mother, father and aunt in just a few weeks. Pray for an end to this pandemic, and for endurance for all of these families still living in its midst.
Southeast Asia
Please pray for the IJM Philippines team as they prepare for their Aftercare Research Launch. This launch will coincide with the week of World Day Against Trafficking in Persons (July 30, 2021), and is in partnership with Inter-Agency Council Against Trafficking (IACAT). Please pray that the recommendations in this research on effective aftercare practices for survivors of online sexual exploitation will swiftly help address current gaps in aftercare and advance the work of providing the best care for our clients.
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.
Praise the Lord that IJM gets the opportunity to present at the Promise Keepers convention held for men across the United States to come together and grow in their walks with the Lord. Pray that the individuals in attendance would really connect with the heart and mission of IJM’s work and even take a leap of faith to support the mission if they feel led. Pray that these men of integrity will feel empowered to go and lead the work of biblical justice in their communities.
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.
