We recently started supporting International Justice Mission. They are involved in many countries, working to end…
- Slavery
- Human trafficking
- Domestic violence
- Land theft
- Police abuse of power
Our partnership will be focused in two of the countries where we already have partnerships: India and Guatemala. In the future, our trips to these two countries will sometimes include a visit to the local IJM office to meet the IJM staff to learn of their work, encourage them and pray for them.
To understand their work a bit better, here are two short videos made by IJM:
After watching these videos, you may wonder if there is anything else you can do now to help children so they are less likely to be exploited. The answer is yes! I believe child sponsorship is one of the best proactive steps we can make. Next time I will share how over 500 Connection Pointe families are sponsoring a child, and what you can do to be involved too.
Til next week,
A home visit in Guatemala…
What an eye opener. I knew it has been such a big problem but this even made it clearer to me the need.
Excited and grateful that our church is partnering with IJM, expanding our global impact.
