Stop Child Trafficking NOW

The reality of the work of Satan has become more and more clear not only to me, but to the global Christian church, and you should be made aware also. Today I was given the opportunity to participate in a Walk to Raise Awareness in Colorado Springs through Stop Child Trafficking NOW organization (www.sctnow.org).



This is not simply a problem in far away lands, but this is an issue facing our country, it is impacting our communities. The greater awareness we all have, the harder it is for evil to go unnoticed.

Please pray for the organizations and people (such Kevin and Erica Kipfer serving in Ethiopia through Loving Shephard Ministries, or Summer Twyman serving in Cambodia through Transitions Global) that are dedicated to rescuing and nurturing those enslaved in human trafficking.
