DESCRIPTION
Social Media Toolkit for the Post for Freedom CampaignTRANSCRIPT
Heavenly Father, we ask for your protection over the families that have been affected by trafficking. We ask you to reunite these families and keep them safe during travel as they journey toward one another. #postforfreedom
Lord we understand that many families who are victims of human trafficking are separated by oceans. We also understand that many of these families have members that are sick. We pray for your healing Lord, and that the family members will be cared for. #postforfreedom
God, we pray that you grant discernment and wisdom to those in charge of the laws and legislature that can change the future of trafficking in the US and the world. We ask you to grant guidance to the prosecutors, defense attorneys, juries and judges as they make important decisions that affect a survivor’s future. #postforfreedom
God, we pray that those around human trafficking survivors will see their God given worth. We pray that these survivors will be seen as unique individuals and not just victims. #postforfreedom
Lord we know that the process for survivors to receive visas is a long one, often taking over a year. We pray for quick visa deliveries and for the process to be as quick and painless for the survivors as possible. #postforfreedom
