"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

Pray for the security of the IJM Kenya team, victims and witnesses who are part of cases that involve aggressive accused persons. Pray for the security team that works diligently to ensure they remain safe as they pursue justice.
Latin America
Praise God for our church partners across Latin America who are committed to finding ways to support survivors of violence in their communities. Across the region, we partner with different church members that want to pray, learn more about biblical justice and take other practical steps to accompany survivors of violence on their pursuit of justice. Pray that their work will multiply.
South Asia
Praise God for a teen boy rescued late last week from a goat farm by local officials and one of IJM’s partners. This 15-year-old boy had been forced to work for about two years to repay a debt of $250 owed by his impoverished family. Praise God for the proactive officials who found and freed him and pray for his ongoing recovery—particularly for his health, education and emotional support.
Asia Pacific
Praise God for the work that is being done through IJM’s Forced Labor Slavery (FLS) Hub and IJM Malaysia on Victim-Centered Response to Trafficking in Persons, a training series conducted in seven cities across Malaysia attended by law enforcement. Please pray that this training will result in strong partnerships and collaborations across the country.
