am happy to report that nearly 70 compassionate individuals showed up at MIPC on Oct. 20th for the screening of International Justice Mission's documentary, "At the End of Slavery: The Battle for Justice in our Time."
Many signed postcards, urging passage of federal anti-trafficking legislation (HR 2737). Many gave what they had. One attendee initially gave $1, but when he realized he actually had $5 he could give, he gave that. Many expressed a desire to do something to stop the exploitation of children and put an end to modern day slavery, of which over 27 million are victims. The attendees asked excellent questions. I give thanks to God that so many people showed they care for those who are most vulnerable.
