International Day of Prayer for Victims of Human Trafficking - Sunday 28 September

A NEW selection of resources has been made available online ahead of The Salvation Army's Annual Day of Prayer for Victims of Human Trafficking 2014. Sunday 28 September has been set aside as this year's day of prayer, when Salvation Army corps (churches) and centres around the world are encouraged to call on God, through focused prayer, to bring hope and freedom to the staggering number of people who are trafficked every year.

This is the eighth year that a day has been specifically set aside by The Salvation Army to pray for the victims of trafficking. As in 2011 and 2012, the Bible verse chosen as the theme for the 2014 day of prayer is Jesus' words from John 10:10: 'I have come that they may have life' (New International Version).

A powerful array of resources – including a sermon, Bible study, poem, prayer ideas, PowerPoint presentations and information about The Salvation Army's anti-trafficking ministry – can be accessed from a new anti-trafficking section of the International Headquarters (IHQ)

website: www.salvationarmy.org/ihq/antitrafficking

The site includes a promotional poster which was created for the 2014 day of prayer by IHQ Communications Section designer Berni Georges.

The English version and a blank version to allow the poster to be adapted into other languages are already available for download.
