who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel.

According to The Advocates for Human Rights, human trafficking (including both sex trafficking and labor trafficking) is the second-largest and fastest-growing criminal industry in the world. In 2008, traffickers made $31 billion buying and selling humans.
The International Labor Organization estimates that there are at least 12.3 million adults and children in forced labor and commercial sexual servitude at any given time.
Tomorrow night, Bethlehem will host an evening of interactive prayer, worship, and a presentation by Jayson Palm (of Freedom Firm) under the heading Slavery Today and Gospel Action.
