I have a really good friend who has been getting involved in joining the fight against modern day slavery. I figured I'd post a blog with some links to ways anyone can get involved or at the very least become more aware. I am working out for me how I can get involved and to what level. It is gripping to know what goes on in our "modern" world that is so unfair.
I also ran across a great video by Sara Groves that is worth watching. Here's that too...
Here are several links:
Bob's Clapham Blog
Faith Alliance Against Slavery and Trafficking
Free The Slaves
God4Girls
humantrafficking.org
International Justice Mission
Not for sale Campaign
Polaris Project
Project Safe House
Road to Patagonia
The Emancipation Network
World Hope International
If you are inspired to get involved, are already involved or want more information talk to my friend. That's what I do!

Thanks! I need all the Web traffic I can get. You're the best...course you already knew that I think that.
Ok...I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face...thanks for saying hi on my blog so I came to say "hi" back...and was just blown away.
Wasn't prepared for that -- but then...when God decides to move in our hearts -- we rarely are.
Have a blessed week.

HI Jamie, Thanks for a great post. If you want to use the videos from our website at Freetheslaves.net, please feel free.
The challenge of global slavery can be daunting, so may I mention that this week I published a new book that is a 25 year plan for the eradication of slavery worldwide. It is called Ending Slavery: How We Free Today's Slaves. You can see it at Amazon or our website.
I often speak about modern slavery in churches and universities, etc. and I have hoping to come to Minneapolis, so if you ever have a slot....
Bless your heart!
