Ending Slavery - Human Trafficking

About a year ago I heard of this topic and had no understanding of what it meant. That has no changed. In Febuary I went to a training at Elgin Vineyard Church, offered by International Teams Ministry, based here in Elgin, Il. This is a huge problem arounnd the world and on our streets here in Elgin.

God says in the Bible to "walk circumspectly not as fools but as wise for the days are evil". One definition for circumspectly is - adj. Heedful of circumstances and potential consequences; prudent. Within that definition for myself I believe in all good conscience I need to pray and put feet to my faith in this arena. I received a newletter yesterday with a song called "I Have A Name" bringing stark awareness to the truth that each victim has a name and in most cases a family badly missing her. http://endslaverytn.org/I_Have_a_Name.htm Will follow with more about this need.
