Please pray for a number of upcoming trainings with college students on human trafficking and bonded labor. These events are a great opportunity to meet the next generation of leaders in our project areas and to inspire them to work in the justice sector. Pray that IJM staff can make these trainings clear and compelling and pray that these students feel equipped to combat trafficking even in their own communities.

Praise the Lord for the blessing of getting time off on Labor Day. Praise God for the opportunity that the team at IJM had this weekend to spend an extra day with their families and loved ones. Lord, we thank you for the good days and the difficult ones, and for the gifts you have given us to help this world be a better place through our work.
