   great piece in ESA’s PRISM magazine this month on answering the question, “What can I do besides pray?” the author attacks the assumption that prayer isn’t “doing something.” thanks for doing something.

   Thanks for the reminder. I spent alot of time yesterday pondering the connection between our worship and our concern for the world. This post hits home in a fresh way. Be blessed as you travel. May God go with you and in your travels may you encounter Him in fresh ways and unexpected places. I am praying.

   Thanks for bringing this to the eyes of us who would rather ignore this or WISH it would go away.

   Anne - thank you SO much for posting this and to all who’ve commented, THANK YOU for praying. Please continue to pray as there is major roadblock that only the Lord can move right now…

   And to Jan Owen - have you read Mark Labberton’s book on justice and worship? Called “The Dangerous Act of Worship.” Totally phenomenal.

   And to Jeff - thank you so much for resonating with that article and for praying (I wrote that and so hope people are moved to more truly pray, even as they also daily act in tangible ways…)

   My cousin worked with/for IJM for quite some time - what an incredible organization. The stories he told of the rescue missions and conditions are hard to fathom.

   umm…I think IJM does not want the prayer requests to be public, until they have successfully been acted upon. You know, so there is no chance of the wrong persons getting a heads-up.

    Hey Melinda, no worries. IJM posted this on their website and Bethany (comment 7) works for IJM. Thanks for the concern though.

    I was just in Cambodia this past July for this very issue with World Hope International. Although the realities of this crime are horrendous, I was encouraged by the collaborative effort put forth by the NGO’s, many faith-based, to eradicate this injustice at every level. I was impressed with the heart and mission of IJM in Cambodia.

    I pray on a regular basis for rescued girls. Only Jesus can restore and heal!

    Anne, thanks for turning us on about these things. One of my favorite things about your blog is that it informs me of things that really matter, things no one else is bothering to talk about. I decided to do a research paper on human trafficking so I can know more about it and how we can take action.

    i am 18 years old and i have been away from my mother for 8 years when she sent my siblings and i to america from jamaica. i live with my dad and he is very abusive physically and mentally. he breaks my things, he puts me down i have been in serious depression and became a pathalogical liar from my view.any ways i am not a citizen of the u.s and they told me i could not attend college so i slacked off from being an honor roll student to a c d f student. i did my research this year and so happens i can go to college. i dont know what to do i beg god to help me get into a college away from him but i think i need more help talking to him. PLEASE im begging you let my go through with my college things and get accepted by atleast 4 colleges away by january where i can be stressfree. i also ask you to pray for the people who i hav lied to, to forgive me in the name of jesus christ, i beg him to forgive me and deliver me my breakthrough..god bless

    Please, fervently pray:

    That TODAY OR TOMORROW NEBOJSA makes new steps toward me (call, approach, apologize) and that WE COMPLETE RECONCILE

    That God keep us in His care and help us to work out all problems

    For God’s protection of our love and future

    That God keep evil influences and envy and jealous opinions and people away from our relationship, that all negative TEMPTATIONS, STUBBORNESS, UNFORGIVENNES AND BITTERNESS be lifted away

    Thank you very much.

    I’M PRAYING FOR YOU AND PEOPLE AROUND ME!

    MAY YOU SEE THE ANSWERS TO MANY OF YOUR PRAYERS

    GOD BLESS YOU!
