Nepal’s Headache: Human Trafficking

(From Pray4SouthAsia.com). Nepal faces a severe human trafficking problem. Thousands of men, women and children are trafficked each year, especially from border areas. Vulnerable individuals are often coerced by “job” offers and are then exploited for forced labor or sexual trafficking. Ministries and organizations are working tirelessly to rescue and restore these lives, but the healing that only the gospel can provide is desperately needed.

* Pray for the protection and awareness for vulnerable communities in Nepal.

*Pray for justice to be served on traffickers and for effective law enforcement efforts to dismantle trafficking networks.

*Pray for the gospel to bring healing and restoration to victims and for ministries working to rescue and rehabilitate them to be strengthened in their mission.
