iCare Christmas Gift to the World

Our hearts were moved by the response to this weekend’s iCare Christmas Gift to the World offering. After seeing the video and learning more about the problem of modern day slavery and child sexual exploitation in Atlanta many of you were moved to tears and compelled to take action.
This Christmas as part of our iCare campaign and Christmas Gift to the World offering, we are partnering with three ministry organizations to make an impact on the problem of child sexual exploitation and human trafficking in our city.
First, prevention, through our support of Innocence Atlanta, we help raise awareness not only of the problem but of it’s root cause – the demand for sexual services. Innocence Atlanta focuses on raising awareness and shining a light into the darkness.
Second, intervention, through our support of Not For Sale, we help provide valuable resources to our local law enforcement community, churches and others who are focused on ending modern day slavery in our lifetimes. Not For Sale works closely with law enforcement to not only identify human trafficking rings in the local Atlanta are, but provide valuable evidence needed for the arrest, prosecution and imprisonment of the perpetrators.
Lastly, restoration, through our support of Wellspring Living, we help provide a new life, healing and hope for young women rescued from sexual slavery and exploitation. Wellspring works with the girls to give them a home, reconnect them with their families, restore their education and help them come into a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ.
If you weren’t able to be there this past weekend, we encourage you to get involved. Watch the video below for more information:
We want to thank you for your prayer support and financial participation. Don’t forget to leave your comments!
